Dr M dares Anwar to swear on Quran
SERDANG, Aug 16 — Former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad today dared Pakatan Rakyat de facto leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to swear on the Quran to prove he was innocent of the sodomy charge he faces, just like what his accuser Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan had.
"Anwar should also be doing the same thing, instead of just giving ceramah (talks) everywhere, to prove his innocence," Dr Mahathir said when approached by reporters during his visit to the Malaysia Agriculture, Horticulture and Agrotourism (Maha) Show 2008, here.
Referring to Mohd Saiful Bukhari's swearing on the Quran at the Federal Territory mosque in Kuala Lumpur yesterday, Mahathir said it was the former Anwar aide's way of proving he was not lying when he alleged that Anwar had sodomised him on June 26.
He said that as a figure on the Malaysian political scene, Anwar should act in accordance with public sentiment which, he said, required that he gave a sworn statement pertaining to the sodomy allegation.
However, the action (of giving a sworn statement) was considered to be just a good political gesture because Anwar himself had to provide legitimate evidence to prove that he was not guilty in the matter.
kzso - will anwar accept saiful, dr m, tg nik aziz, perlis mufti, moeslem dare to mubahalah? fat chance!
