In the wake of rumours on Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s imminent arrest, his wife Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Ismail today resigned as Permatang Pauh MP to make way for him to contest in a by-election.
Dr Wan Azizah, the parliamentary opposition leader who will keep her Parti Keadilan Rakyat president’s post, said she also sent the resignation letter to Dewan Rakyat Speaker Tan Sri Pandikar Amin Mulia today.
Pandikar, who is in Sabah at the moment and will respond on Monday, is expected to notify the Election Commission immediately. A by-election must be called within 60 days after the notification date.

Pusrawi Hospital Statement
Pusrawi Hospital today confirmed that a preliminary examination was conducted on 23-year-old Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan who had accused Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim of sodomising him, but insisted that it was not a conclusive medical report.
“Dr Muhammad Osman Abdul Hamid is only a general practitioner at the emergency clinic at Pusrawi Hospital and he’s not a specialist,” said Pusrawi general manager Wan Mahmood Wan Yaacob.
He said the doctor had advised Saiful to seek treatment with a specialist at the government hospital.
“There was no examination done on his sodomy allegation,” he told a press conference here this afternoon.

Raja Petra in his blog Malaysia Today has published an article about a doctor’s report from Hospital Pusrawi that has conducted an examination on Saiful. The report said that there is no evidence Saiful has been sodomised.
Below is the article Doctor on the run: police want him to fabricate evidence against Anwar written by Raja Petra and a copy of Dr Mohamed Osman Abdul Hamid from the Hospital Pusrawi medical report on Saiful Bukhari.
On 21 July 2008, I published an article in this same column called HOW, YET AGAIN, THEY ARE TRYING TO FABRICATE EVIDENCE AGAINST ANWAR.
In that article I mentioned as follows:
You see, they asked a certain doctor from a certain hospital to conduct an examination on Saiful. The doctor did so and he came out with a report that said there is no evidence Anwar had ever penetrated or sodomised the young man. The police then picked up the doctor and detained him for three days. As much as they tried to force him to change his report to implicate Anwar he refused to do so.

Malaysia should drop its sodomy charges against opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim, said a joint statement by three former leading figures on the international stage.
“We have heard with deep concern the charges filed against the honorable Datuk Seri Dr. Anwar Ibrahim,” said the statement by former Canadian prime minister Paul Martin, ex-World Bank chief James Wolfensohn, and Michel Camdessus, the former head of the International Monetary Fund.
They said the charges were brought “in spite of the fact that similar unsubstantiated charges filed 10 years ago against him were overturned by the Supreme Court.”

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.
