LATEST: Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has received a copy of the police report made by Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan who claimed that the PKR de facto leader had sodomised him.
Speaking at a press conference at Yayasan Aman, Anwar said there were contradictory statements made in relation to the case and he therefore believed the allegation was aimed at tarnishing his image.
It is learnt that the police report was given to him on Friday August 15.
He said he had also seen the first medical report made by a Pusrawi Hospital doctor and was privy to the second medical report.
Anwar Ibrahim’s lawyer has said it again - give us the police report made by the PKR de facto leader’s 23-year-old former aide Saiful Bukhari Azlan without “any further waffling or prevarication”.
Sivarasa said, “How can anyone called in to give a police statement in relation to a criminal investigation know what exactly the police are investigating and be obliged to answer questions without having a copy or even sight of the initial documents that sparks off the relevant criminal investigation?

Comments on news report Existing DNA sample too old, says PM published by MalaysiaKini 18 July 2008.
Koh CL said : DNA from an individual can be easily extracted from a biological sample (eg, cheek cells will do, rather than blood) of the individual.
DNA typing is then carried out with the DNA sample to create the individual-specific DNA type (or erroneously termed DNA profile or DNA fingerprint) of the individual.
The DNA type of a person will not change with age.
The Chemistry Department in PJ must already have a record of Anwar Ibrahim’s DNA type in its DNA database. So why are our PM and his cabinet members playing incompetent DNA scientists?
DR PR said: Why must Syed Hamid Albar and the PM coax Anwar Ibrahim to give a blood specimen? What interest do they have in this episode if it is not political? The survival or demise of BN depends on the outcome of this case.

Police freed Malaysian opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim on bail Thursday after holding him overnight in connection with a sodomy accusation that abruptly suspended his campaign to unseat the government.
In a cell phone text message to reporters, Anwar’s lawyer Sankara Nair said his client, who was held overnight at the police headquarters, was “granted police bail.”

Police arrested Malaysian opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim on Wednesday 16 July 2008, less than an hour before a deadline for him to appear at police headquarters to answer allegations that he sodomized a male aide.
About a dozen policemen, some of them wearing balaclavas, cordoned off the road leading to Anwar’s house and stopped his car, said his lawyer Sankara Nair. The policemen informed Anwar that they had orders to arrest him, said his lawyer Sankara Nair.
“They arrested him. No reason was given,” said Nair. He said Anwar was bundled into a police car and taken to the police headquarters. No one else from Anwar’s entourage was allowed to get into the car with him, he said. There was no trouble or violence.
