(Bernama) - The prosecution Monday filed a motion to postpone the implementation of the High Court order for the provision of the documents sought by Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim before the start of hearing on his sodomy trial.

The notice was filed at the High Court's Criminal Division here at 2 pm, signed by Datuk Nordin Hassan, one of the Deputy Public Prosecutors for the sodomy case.

Also filed with the notice was an immediate recommendation that the case be heard as soon as possible. However, the court had yet to fix a date for the hearing.

On July 16, Justice Datuk Mohamad Zabidin Mohd Diah allowed Anwar's application and ordered the prosecution to supply the documents concerned within seven days.

Another Deputy Public Prosecutor, Shamsul Sulaiman, when asked about the postponement in providing the documents, said the court must hear the application before Thursday because the seven-day deadline would end on that day.

We all know why. Something to hide? Prosecution by ambush.It does not take a rocket scientist to figure out now that this case is BN s political prosecution.

Isnt it ironically that his Royal Highness of Perak had just mentioned that a fair and just judiciary is the key to the rule of law and the respect of the courts and this DPP had just about thumbing his nose at the judiciary as if he is above the law. He should be thrown out or into jail for contempt of the court. However, since the whole judiciary is under the control of BN/UMNO, it is just a joke. So your highness, save your breath because the new royalty is the UMNOPUTERAS.

This is an OUTRIGHT and BLATANT display of arrogance of UMNO rule and disruption of justice, Malaysia is in a state of anarchy with critical institutions like judiciary, AG, MACC and PDRM so blatantly abused by UMNO.

apa nak takut kalau benar? ini dah nampak macam ada udang sebalik batu. Orang yang tak salah selalu dikenakan on BN/UMNO. apa nak jadi?

one is innocent till proven guilty, ask Azalina who was screaming this when she got visited by MACC. so you give him what he needs since you claim have a good case when you wanted to go after him. we all know it is a BS case but hell the judges are in your pocket(lucky not all judges) thus you want to screw Anwar.

How can a man defend himself if he does not know what he is faced with? An accused must face his accuser. That is his fundamental right. This prosecution team is playing cloak and dagger prosecution and Anwar has to guess what he is facing to prepare his case. This way the prosecution team can shift the goal posts as and when Anwar comes up with a good defence. They played this game in the 1st episode 11 years ago.

I have just waken up from an induced coma but remembered quite clearly the good Sultan was talking and acting very unfairly on the Perak crisis just before I lapsed into that long sleep.
Has the same good Sultan passed away when I was sleeping and am I just reading the inaugal speech by the new Sultan of Perak?

DPP should just declare that it's his family court. He does what he likes. No need to bother by the book of law. Malay rights but it is not applicable to Malay from opposition party.

I wonder how many of those Malay politician are pure Malays. Aren't Malaysia ruled by Mamak in the past? Why are they talking about protecting Malays rights? I am confused.

Why so scared to give the relevant documents to Anwar as required under the law? If you have a good case, what are you scared of, UMNO DOGS??

You can convict Anwar with your kangaroo court but you'll never convince Malaysians. And next elections we'll show you who's the boss!

If the court has ordered the Prosecution team to provide Anwar's defence team with the documents requested surely there should be no appeal? Why the request for postponement? So that they can tamper with the documents? Where is the free and fair judiciary that the Sultan of Perak was talking about? The govt. hasn't learnt its lesson from the MACC tragedy, has it?
