Anwar Says He Fears Any Oath He Takes May Be Manipulated

BUKIT MERTAJAM, Aug 17 (Bernama) -- Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) advisor Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said here he would not take any oath in connection with the sodomy charge he faces for fear it would be manipulated by certain quarters.
He claimed that his sodomy accuser, former aide Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan, had sworn on the Quran on purpose in an attempt to deny him victory in the Permatang Pauh parliamentary by-election on Aug 26.
"What is there to proof? The report is out. There is no incidence of sodomy. He (Mohd Saiful Bukhari) wants to swear. He knows there is no (sodomy) case, and that is why he is embarrassing me during the Permatang Pauh by-election," he told about 1,000 people at a "ceramah" (talk) in Taman Cermai in Permatang Pauh here last night.
Ipoh Timur Member of Parliament (MP) Lim Kit Siang and Bukit Mertajam MP Chong Eng, both from the DAP, were among the leaders present at the function.
Last Friday, Mohd Saiful Bukhari swore on the Quran at the Federal Territory Mosque in Kuala Lumpur that he was speaking the truth when he accused Anwar of having sodomised him on June 26.

tunku : a guilty person will never dare to swear (sumpah laknat). anwar knew it very well. otherwise he had swear long time ago to clear his name. so you can guess whether he is guilty or not.

in the recent swearing did by Saiful,most of his statements made when asked by reporters was "i'll make further statements in court".perhaps to avoid his statements being speculated or being misinterpreted by other peoples.

it takes a great deal of guts to swear by Quran.if he(Saiful) realize and know the consequences of what he did (swearing),then i guess it's all ok.

we gonna know more when trial starts.

Agree, tunku. A guilty person will never have the guts to swear for his innocence. The oaths itself is so extereme. After listening to it, I felt so pity and yet praise him for being so brave to give the oath. But shame fo ANWAR for being coward to swear, yet desplaying a bundle of excuses.

Anwar is again playing around the bushes, hoping that his attempt to enter the political world will succeed through the by-election.
And of course he won't let this incident with Saiful jeopardize his chance..

quoting from another blog,
this is coming from a person who promoted and popularize the SD usage in Malaysia yet do not believe in SD with regard with the Most Knowing and Most Gracious and Most Fair
