Anwar fails in 'qazaf' bid against Saiful
  • 9 years ago
The Kuala Lumpur Syariah High Court has allowed an early objection by the Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Jamil Khir Baharom to Anwar Ibrahim's qazaf (bearing false witness) application.

With that, Anwar cannot proceed with the application to compel the syariah chief prosecutor to institute legal action against Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan for allegedly lying and not coming up with the four required witnesses to verify his sodomy allegation against Anwar.

Judge Mohd Shukor Sabudin, in his decision this morning, ruled that Anwar's application was frivolous and vexatious.
