Video experts: Time stamp on CCTV not in sync

The Anwar Ibrahim sodomy trial continues today with the cross-examination of audio and video specialist ASP Fauziah Che Mat.

Fauziah had last Thurs azlan day testified she was asked by investigating officer DSP Jude Blacious Pereira to look for several individuals and cars on the day of the alleged incident on June 26, 2008.

Although the witness did not mention the identity of the individuals , it was apparent she was asked to look for Anwar and complainant Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan at the Desa Damansara condominium (which she referred to as Sri Damansara).

Fauziah also testified she was asked to make copies of the hard disc.

Malaysiakini provided a round-up of the week's highlights yesterday and the possibility of a new witness from cyber security to testify on the authenticity of the CCTV recording.

LIVE REPORTS

8.30am: All the prosecutors led by Solicitor-General II Mohd Yusof Zainal Abiden are in court.

Two big screen television sets are in place - one showing the entrance of the Desa Damansara condominium and the other to the lifts from the parking area and to the condominium.

9.04am: The court is called into session with High Court judge Mohamad Zabidin Mohd Diah presiding.

Witness ASP Fauziah Che Mat takes the stand.

DPP Mohd Hanafiah asks several questions, including whether it is 'Sri Damansara' condominium as mentioned by Fauziah last week.

Fauziah corrects herself - she says she was referring to Desa Damansara.

9.07am: Fauziah, cross-examined by Sankara, says investigating officer Jude Blacious Pereira met her on July 3, 2008.
