Anwar’s accuser visited DPM at his home before lodging police report
KUALA LUMPUR: Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan met with Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak at the latter’s home to seek his view a few days before he lodged a police report against Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
In disclosing this yesterday, Najib who described Saiful as traumatised, said he listened and was sceptical about the accusation at first.
“I told him I leave it to him,” said Najib, who also said it was the first time he had met Saiful.
He added that when Saiful came to ask for a scholarship earlier, the latter met Najib’s special officer at his office. Stressing that there was no conspiracy against Anwar, Najib said he was sceptical of Saiful’s accusations and did not want to make any conclusions when Saiful told him he had been sodomised by the PKR adviser.
Najib said he then told Saiful that it was up to him if he wanted to lodge a police report against Anwar. Asked why he thought that Anwar was making personal attacks against him, Najib said he did not know, adding that perhaps Anwar thought that he was conspiring against him.
“There’s no conspiracy. Actually, this boy came to me to complain that he was sodomised by Anwar. “I was not convinced at first whether his story was true or otherwise. “I said to him ‘It’s up to you.’ I left it to him to decide whether he wanted to leave it to the police to investigate and carry out the next course of action.
“I saw him as genuine because he looked so frightened. His hands were cold. “I advised him to make his own decision, and he decided to tell me everything on what had happened. “I was not sure whether he was going to lodge a police report,” he added.
Asked what Saiful had told him, Najib said: “A lot. “The stories are many. Maybe I will reveal them later, but only after the case is completed.”
Najib said the main issue was whether sodomy had happened or not. Asked whether he would give a statement if an investigation were launched, Najib said he only heard Saiful’s allegation.
“The statement should be from him. It’s important that it should be from him, not from me,” he added. “You cannot link the two things (Saiful’s visit to the DPM’s office and his meeting with Najib) together. “He just came for help and he never met me when he came to the office (seeking a scholarship),” he added.
Najib mengaku jumpa Saiful

Timbalan perdana menteri Datuk Seri Najib Razak mengaku bahawa Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan datang menemuinya beberapa hari sebelum membuat laporan polis mendakwa diliwat oleh Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
Menurutnya, Mohd Saiful (foto) menemuinya beberapa hari sebelum membuat laporan polis tersebut, bercerita mendakwa telah diliwat oleh penasihat PKR.
"Saya mula-mula tidak berapa yakin dengan ceritanya. Saya menerima kedatangannya atas sifat saya seorang pemimpin. "Dia datang beberapa hari lalu, sebelum laporan polis dibuat. "Dia datang kerana mahu pertolongan daripada saya," katanya sambil menambah, Saiful kenal salah seorang pegawainya. "Dia datang di pejabat saya, saya nampak dia dalam ketakutan. Tangan seram sejuk," katanya kepada pemberita di bangunan Parlimen.
Najib berkata, bekas pemimpin pelajar Universiti Tenaga Nasional (Uniten) itu telah menceritakan segala-galanya kepada beliau. Bagaimanapun, kata Najib, beliau tidak menasihatkan Saiful supaya membuat laporan polis. Najib juga berkata, Saiful pernah datang menemuinya di kediamannya sebelum ini untuk memohon biasiswa.
"Saya biarkan kepada pihak berkuasa mengambil tindakan tapi saya ada hak apabila saya difitnah," tambahnya. Menjawab soalan pemberita sama ada beliau risau, Najib berkata: "Saya tidak perlu risau kerana saya percaya kepada sistem".
Selasa lalu, PKR menyatakan ia mempunyai satu akuan berkanun yang mengaitkan pembabitan pejabat Najib dengan dakwaan liwat terbaru yang dilaporkan kepada polis Sabtu lalu, kata Anwar.
"Hari ini kita ada satu pengakuan bersumpah daripada seseorang yang belum kita dedahkan yang tahu bahawa memang ada pakatan dan perencanaan yang melibatkan pejabat timbalan perdana menteri untuk menghina saya," katanya dalam program ceramah penjelasan isu panas tersebut.
Pada sebelah petang hari sama, beliau mendakwa di sidang media bahawa wujud penglibatan Najib bersama isterinya Rosmah Mansor dan pegawainya Khairil Anas Yusof dalam dakwaan Mohd Saiful.
Sementara angkatan muda PKR semalam mencabar Najib menafikan pernah bertemu Mohd Saiful.
"AMK percaya bahawa wujud kerjasama terancang yang melibatkan Najib dan kuncu-kuncunya dalam konspirasi ini, bertujuan untuk mengelakkan pendedahan gempar Raja Petra Kamarudin melalui perakuan sumpah beliau mengenai pembunuhan Altantuya," kata ketuanya Shamsul Iskandar Mohd Akin."
AMK mencabar Najib untuk menafikan bahawa wujud satu pertemuan sulit yang melibatkan beliau dan Saiful dengan disertai oleh beberapa orang lain beberapa hari sebelum laporan polis dibuat oleh Saiful pada 28 Jun 2008."

Ezam: Sodomy claims an Anwar tactic
SHAH ALAM: The sodomy allegations made against PKR adviser Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim is a tactical move by him to politicise the matter and make it into an international issue.
“It is also unfair of him to accuse Umno leaders of political conspiracy. Anwar, who is asking others to be fair to him, must first be fair to others,” said former PKR stalwart Ezam Mohd Nor.
Ezam criticised Pakatan Rakyat’s politics, saying that it went against the foundations laid by the nation’s founding fathers.
“The foundations for multi-racialism was initiated by our founding fathers whereby Malaysians can vote for candidates of any race during the general election,” he said.
He added that Umno and Barisan Nasional leaders must counter the impending threat from Pakatan Rakyat.
