your say 'It is very wrong for the prosecution to cherry pick reports which may support their case, and deny any other report which may point elsewhere.'

Sodomy II: Karpal continues grilling HKL doc

Josephine: The plot thickens! It would be good to hear from the Hospital Kuala Lumpur doctor and the prosecution team as to why the first chemist report is not considered good evidence to be tendered in court, as opposed to the second report.

Whether Anwar is guilty or not, the manner with which the evidence is being withheld, arbitrarily selected to be tendered in court gives the perception of bias and impropriety. Normally, raw notes would make better evidence because sometimes editorial inputs can distort or misrepresent.

The fact that both the prosecution and the judge are not interested to allow the defence a peep into the clinical notes only fuel the public perception that there is no fair play where Anwar Ibrahim is concerned.

There is no point to have a prosperous and high-income society if Malaysia cannot accord its citizens justice in courts.

Kit P: Something very fishy is going on here. For justice to be done, the court must have access to the body of evidence as a whole. It is very wrong for the prosecution to cherry pick reports which may support their case and deny any other report which may point elsewhere.

In my mind, that amounts to obstruction of justice, and the prosecution in this case seems hell-bent on doing just that.

Neders: DSAI (Anwar Ibrahim) is charged for consensual anal sex but why is this same charge not preferred against Saiful? This is nothing but selective prosecution.

No one can ever convince me that this case is not politically motivated. Not now, not ever.

The other thing is chemist report 01 is obviously not favourable to the prosecution and that is why they are not tendering it. Why then make mention of it? For pete's sake, stop this charade and not shame us Malaysians.

Gen2: Maybe the prosecution's sandiwara is unraveling because their script is poorly written. Like all the poor quality local dramas we get on TV. Cerita-cerita bodoh yang membodohkan .

FairMind: Isn't this action of the Hospital Kuala Lumpur doctor's refusal to look at the clinical note is as clear as daylight that HKL is in cahoots with the prosecutor to suppress the truth from coming out?

Isn't this a clear sign that this witness is bias and his answers may not be correct whereupon his testimony cannot be relied on in court? Even the judge is abetting him. It is Sodomy One deja vu all over again!

Alicescat: At every turn, the prosecution denies access to information vital for the defence. What is the prosecution afraid of? The truth must be made known. Isn't that what the court of law is all about?

Can the prosecution team look at themselves in the mirror every morning knowing deep down that they are part of these injustices being played out every day in the courtroom against one man? To defile the court of justice in the process? To crush him at all cost?

It's vile and inconceivable!

Anonymous: Benda macam ini sudah membawa malu kepada orang Melayu di seluruh dunia kerana ia memberi pandangan yang orang Melayu sangguh membuat benda-benda yang aneh, yang sepatutnya tidak akan berlaku oleh bangsa-bangsa lain.

Kalaupun orang itu jahat, benda yang tidak masuk akal sebegini tidak pun seharusnya berlaku. Apa sudah jadi dengan kaum Melayu dibawah pimpinan Umno. Kalau ini bukan sial, apa lagi?

Anonymous2: If there is nothing to hide, there is nothing to hide. If there is something to hide, then there is something to hide. Is the law practised here English law (innocent until proven guilty) or French law (guilty until proven innocent)? Be open and shame the devil!

Lim Chong Leong: It does not matter if the prosecution does not want to tender a certain document. If the defence wants to view it or tender it themselves they can because they must be accorded every opportunity to defend themselves.

This is fundamental for the existence of our criminal process, where a person is innocent until proven guilty, unless that has changed under BN rule, where the prosecution has become persecution.

And why do they have to recede into the judge's chambers every time to argue a point of law that was raised, like whether the defence had wanted the preliminary report or the clinical notes? Is there something to hide, like the judge's or the prosecution's incompetence?

Argue it out in open court for all of us to see the drama or the comedy and whatever that unfolds. Justice must be seen to be done, and not hidden behind the musky chamber walls of the judges.

Lonestar: Doc, you have taken an oath to tell the truth, the whole truth. And if the truth is in those clinical notes, let the truth set you free or you will be damned in the eyes of the rakyat.

DOC: Now that Mr PM has openly declared that the general election is planned next year, I assume that Anwar's sham of a sodomy trial should pick up pace and we should see him behind bars soon.
