Sodomy II: Anwar's goes for 3rd recusal attempt


After a three week break, the Anwar Ibrahim sodomy trial resumes today with the defence making a fresh application to have Kuala Lumpur High Court judge Mohamad Zabidin Mohd Diah to be disqualified from hearing the case and for the trial to start afresh.

azlanInitially, today was fixed for the first day of Anwar's defence after Justice Zabidin decided the prosecution has a case against the Opposition leader to answer.

This comes after the court found complainant Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan as a truthful and credible witness and that the doctors and chemist witnesses' testimonies corroborate with the findings.

The latest recusal attempt will be heard first today.

This is the third attempt by Anwar to have Justice Zabidin recuse himself after earlier bids - over the judge's failure to take action against Utusan Malaysia and his threat to cite Karpal Singh for contempt - ended in failure.

Karpal will submit the application first and this will follow with solicitor-general II Mohd Yusof Zainal Abiden's reply.

It remains to be seen whether Justice Zabidin will decide on the application today or fix another day.
