Four of the seven KeADILAN leaders sought by the police for organising the "Black 14" people's gathering at the National Mosque were today ordered by the magistrate court to be remanded for five more days.

KeADILan vice president Tian Chua, Youth chief Mohd Ezam Mohd Nor, supreme council member N. Gopalankrishnan and reformasi leader Abdul Malek Hussain were ordered to be remanded further to help police investigations into the "Black 14" event.

The four were taken into the courtroom at 1pm today. Family members and journalists were not allowed to listen to the proceedings which lasted more than two hours.

KeADILan Youth executive secretary Zahid Mat Arip and its Bukit Bintang division chief Sanusi Abdullah who surrendered themselves at the Dang Wangi district police station this morning, were not produced in court today.

Another KeADILan member, Lokman Noor Adam, however, had so far not responded to the police call to present himself at the nearest police station. He is expected to hand in a memorandum to the Malay rulers to seek justice for sacked deputy prime minister Anwar Ibrahim starting with the Sultan of Kedah this Friday.

"I will not stop until Ezam is released and instructs me to stop," he told malaysiakini yesterday. Meanwhile, the ongoing sodomy trial of Anwar was today adjourned to tomorrow as his counsel, Karpal Singh, was unable to proceed with his submission on the relevance of Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamed's testimony. Another defence lawyer, Christopher Fernando, told High Court judge Arifin Jaka that Karpal was engaged in another case in the Shah Alam High Court. Anwar is charged with forcing sex on his wife's former driver Azizan with the aid of adopted brother Sukma Dermawan Sasmitaat Madja. He is serving a six-year jail term for corruption and stands trial on a separate charge of sodomy and sexual misconduct. He has repeatedly denied all charges and says they were fabricated to end his political career.
