An interesting paragraph that drew my attention yesterday was from a blog post at ‘OutSyed The Box’ by blogger and author (of ‘Club of Doom’), Syed Akbar Ali (SAA) who also sits on the board of advisers of Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC).
The March 17th 2012 blog post was titled ‘Gag Order Against RPK’ and the startling paragraph was QUOTE:
“Then this guy Azizan Abu Bakar, the complainant in the first sodomy trial suffered a strange "hit and run" accident where his pregnant wife was killed. The case was not solved. At that time guess who was still the Deputy Prime Minister? All these things happened.” UNQUOTE.
The DPM at that time was, of course, Dato Sri Anwar Ibrahim.

Here’s a rebuttal of SAA’s insinuation by way of an extract from MALAYSIAToday’s ‘THE CORRIDORS OF POWER’ by Raja Petra Kamaruddin (RPK) dated August 3rd 2010:
“A key witness in the trial of Malaysia's sacked finance minister, Anwar Ibrahim, said Tuesday that the former Cabinet minister wasn't involved in the death of the witness' wife earlier this year. Anwar's former driver, Azizan Abu Bakar, told the capital's High Court that his pregnant wife actually died in a car accident in January…..Asked on the recent arrest of Anwar's former family driver Azizan Abu Bakar for khalwat (close proximity), Dr Mahathir said he believed somebody was watching Azizan closely. ''I think all will be done to discredit this witness,'' he said of Azizan, a prosecution witness in the corruption trial of Anwar. (Utusan Malaysia, 20 September 1999).
The man who accused Malaysian ex-deputy premier Anwar Ibrahim of sodomising him was Tuesday jailed by an Islamic court for trying to have sex with a woman, the state news agency Bernama reported. The Islamic court in southern Malacca state jailed Azizan Abu Bakar, 39, for three months and fined him 7,000 ringgit after he pleaded guilty to being in close proximity with Norhayati Saad.
Azizan, the key witness in Anwar's ongoing sodomy trial, also admitted attempting to have illicit sex with Norhayati, it added. Norhayati, a 22 year-old college student whom he married a few days after they were caught, was jailed for three months and fined a total of 6,300 ringgit, the report said. The pair were caught together in a rented house in Malacca this month during a raid by Islamic religious officials and police officers. Islam bans sexual relations outside marriage.”

So, perhaps Syed, you should ask the Prime Minister at that time, Dr. Mahathir Mohamed, the man who started the ball rolling with a police investigation of Anwar, and said QUOTE: “I think all will be done to discredit this witness.” UNQUOTE, if he knows anything about the death of Azizan’s wife. Surely the good doctor was not implying that Azizan was persuaded to commit khalwat by Anwar or PKR members?
Justice Ariffin Jaka had pronounced that Azizan was akin to the Rock of Gibraltar in his integrity and honesty and went ahead and convicted Anwar,:
Justice Ariffin Jaka had pronounced that Azizan was akin to the Rock of Gibraltar in his integrity and honesty and went ahead and convicted Anwar,:
- Claiming Azizan had the higher moral ground despite him being convicted of committing khalwat during the trial.
- Ignoring completely (thrice) Azizan’s numerous backtrackings on the date of the alleged sodomy.
- Despite the place (Tivoli Villas) that Azizan claimed the alleged crime was committed, did not exist at that time.
Rightfully, on appeal, the Federal Court flushed Jaka’s verdict down his honour's toilet!
So Syed, even after Azizan had, under oath, himself exonerated Anwar from any involvement in his wife’s death, you continue to make these dirty insinuations?
So Syed, even after Azizan had, under oath, himself exonerated Anwar from any involvement in his wife’s death, you continue to make these dirty insinuations?
But readers may wish to know who Syed Akbar Ali is, and what sterling personal credentials he is able to table to back up these innuendos and insinuations about Anwar.
Let’s go to an extract from Haris Ibrahim’s ‘People’s Parliament’ blog of July 2nd 2011 titled ‘Syeditious Akbar Ali’:
“Dr M’s chief spin doctor, Syeditious Akbar Ali, who holds that semen is discharged by women, in his post on 15th June, urges the police to arrest Ambiga if she ‘steps out into the street’.….. Syed, of course, has had his own run in with the men in blue. Syed actually alludes to this in an interview with The Star on 6th March, this year. This is what he says of that episode:

Syed, of course, has had his own run in with the men in blue. Syed actually alludes to this in an interview with The Star on 6th March, this year. This is what he says of that episode:
‘…I was charged but the case was nothing. I was charged for an anonymous comment on his blog. My comment was on Arabs misbehaving in Bukit Bintang, so I don’t know how seditious that is…'.
Case was nothing, eh, Syed? Syed was charged under section 4(1)(c) of the Sedition Act, 1948. No case against him?
Let me reproduce here for you his comment in full, which he says was nothing. Hehe, nothing, eh Syed?
“IS EASY TO IMPRESS THE MALAYSIn Malaysia, ever wonder why massage centres are mushrooming in Bukit Bintang? Because of SUDDEN increased of ARAB visitors.
EXACTLY BTN. The Arab camel shaggers are here in town. Also please note the amount of alcohol sold in Bukit Bintang. The Arabs are drinking up too. Not only prostitution but the Arabs are also into young boys, their all-time favourites. You will notice young Malay boys and some Chinese hanging around the Bukit Bintang area. The Arabs are diseased man. It takes an exceptionally stupid people (the Batu Gang Malays) to think that it is such a great thing to welcome Arab camel shaggers to our country.
The Arabs are kafirs or disbelievers. They founded the religion of the Batu Gang. They have conned millions into believing that a stupid stone structure in their shit hole desert should be the centre of focus of people’s worship - another stupid concept. True to Arab homosexual tradition, the sick Arabs have conned millions of people into raising their arse above their heads five times a day - supposedly in prayer. Ass holes! Staring up each other’s backsides! Yo Brader Anwar. Just thought of you."
"In another post, where Syeditious admits to receiving RM3,000 from RPK towards account of the bail he had to pay in his case, he claims that he had wanted to pay the sum back after the charges against him were dropped and the bail money returned to him. This is how he puts it.
“I did ask Haris Ibrahim that I wanted to return the RM3,000. He just gave me a ‘forget it lah’ type shake of the head.”
“I did ask Haris Ibrahim that I wanted to return the RM3,000. He just gave me a ‘forget it lah’ type shake of the head.”
As far as I’m aware, Syed has not replied to Haris’s branding him a liar or filed a defamation law suit against him.
To be fair to Syed, he does write fairly well on a broad range of interesting issues. I agree with him that religion is the bane of man, and should not be allowed to interfere in government, politics, schools and higher institutions of learning. An elderly wise gentleman recently explained to me that the Sanskrit/Tamil word ‘Sanatana-dharma’ means ‘right behaviour’ and if one thinks about it seriously, that’s all the religion mankind really needs.
But, once in a while Syeditious – I love that moniker coined by Haris – lets slip his guard. Then you get to catch a glimpse of some disturbing flashes from the chinks in his armour. In his continuous vilification of Anwar, his demand that Ambiga and Bersih organizers be locked up by the police, that foreigners are plotting regime change in Malaysia, and more, written always in a hysterical tone, suggests something is not quite alright in his make up. More so, from a man who quotes the Koran chapter and verse.
And really Syed, did Anwar impose any gag order on RPK? Does Anwar own the Skype global forum, or have influence over its organizers? This is the real world, not the NEP dictated fantasy one, where those who foot the bill will want their money’s worth. So, they logically decided not that RPK was less newsworthy, but that Anwar was more. If you were going to recover your investment outlay of millions of dollars, who would you say is internationally more bankable, Anwar or RPK? Money talks, bullshit walks. QED!
Then again, has Anwar ever denied RPK’s right to free speech? Has he gagged RPK from blogging, giving interviews or speaking his mind?
Last I read MALAYSIAToday, RPK is alive and kickin’ swimmingly well, thank you!
