KUALA LUMPUR: Is Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan a passive homosexual?
That was the pertinent question posed by senior lawyer Karpal Singh, the lead defence counsel in Anwar Ibrahim’s sodomy trial, during cross-examination of DNA expert Dr Seah Lay Hong after multiple DNA profiles were found on Saiful’s anus during his medical examination following the sodomy allegation.
Karpal also asked if the evidence of DNA profiles found in Saiful’s anus could lead to that conclusion.
“I put it to you that is it a logical conclusion that multiple DNA profiles in his anus would make him him (Saiful) a passive homosexual?” he asked.
Seah in reply said she could not answer the question as she was not in a position to comment on the matter.
The veteran lawyer, looking to punch holes in the prosecution’s case against the former deputy prime minister, proceeded to ask for Seah’s comment on Saiful’s proforma report which stated that the “victim” had complained of attempted sodomy.
“If it was attempted sodomy, how could DNA be found in Saiful’s anus?” asked Karpal.
Lead prosecutor Mohd Yusof Zainal Abiden objected to this question, saying that the doctor had nothing to do with the proforma report, and that therefore she need not answer.
