Kuala Lumpur - Malaysian opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim Tuesday urged police to cease investigations into allegations that he had sodomized a former aide after several internet news portals revealed that his accuser was found medically to have never been sodomized.
A purported copy of the medical report for 23-year-old Mohamad Saiful Bukhari Azlan was first leaked onto the highly-popular Malaysia Today website on Monday.
The report stated there was no physical evidence that Mohamad Saiful had been sodomized.
Anwar, who was detained on July 16 for questioning into the sodomy charges, said the medical report proved that charges against him were "baseless and politically motivated."
Kuala Lumpur, July 29 : National Council of Tamil Youth Bell Club (TYBC) has urged Malaysian Education Ministry to not deregister schools with 50 or fewer children.
TYBC president P. Ponniah said that many estate Tamil schools had fewer than 50 children per school and should be allowed to continue and not merged.
Malaysia Nanban quoted him as saying that the schools’ management should open the schools to families in nearby new housing estates.
Ponniah said that at present many parents were forced to send their children to national schools, as there were no Tamil schools nearby and also because of the transportation problems.
Kuala Lumpur, July 25 : Tamil schools in Malaysia need to be brought on par with other schools in the country in terms of funding and facilities, the president of the Malaysian Indian Business Association (MIBA), P. Sivakumar, has said.
Kuala Lumpur- Malaysian opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim on Wednesday insisted that sodomy allegations against him have not changed his plans to take over the country's government on September 16.
Anwar's rising political star appeared to have hit a glitch last month when a former male aide accused him of sodomy.
Anwar rejected the accusations as a plot to end his political career, and claimed that talks and plans by the three-party opposition alliance to replace the government were still underway.
Kuala Lumpur - Malaysian opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim on Monday was slapped with another legal suit when the country's police chief sued him for defamation.
Inspector General of Police Musa Hassan demanded unspecified compensation from Anwar, who claimed earlier this month that Musa had fabricated evidence in his 1998 jailing on sodomy and corruption corruption charges.
Musa also sought an injunction to restrain Anwar, who was deputy prime minister from 1993 to 1998, from repeating the allegations.
Earlier this month, Anwar lodged a police report against Musa and Attorney General Abdul Gani Pattail, alleging that the two were involved in the fabrication of evidence during his trial 10 years ago.
