Selepas 46 hari, tiada apa bukti kukuh yang boleh mensabitkan DSAI. Jelaslah kepada kita bahawa sememangnya tiada kes. Sama-samalah kita tinjau dua minggu lagi.

============================================================================================================================== Anwar trial adjourned for two weeks as procecution winds up case

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 20 (AFP) - The sodomy trial of Malaysian jailed former deputy premier Anwar Ibrahim was adjourned for two weeks Friday as the prosecution wound up its case after 46 days of proceedings.

"The prosecution does not intend to call other witnesses and we're closing the prosecution case," Attorney-General Mohtar Abdullah told the high court.

"In view of the lengthy trial, maybe both the defence and prosecution could be given time to prepare our submissions," he said.

Justice Arifin Jaka adjourned the trial for two weeks after defence counsel Christoper Fernando said his team would be ready to reconvene on September 6.

Anwar, who was fired and arrested in September last year, is already serving a six-year sentence following his April conviction on four corruption charges involving attempts to cover up allegations of sexual misconduct.

In the new trial, Anwar and his adopted Indonesian brother Sukma Darmawan are accused of sodomising a driver between January and March 1993. If convicted of sodomy, Anwar could face an additional 20 years in jail.
