Torres ends Spain's long wait for glory

Spain became European champions for the second time after Fernando Torres's first-half goal in Vienna proved enough to defeat Germany in the final of UEFA EURO 2008™.

History an inspiration
Spain had won their only previous piece of silverware in this competition in 1964 and had not been beyond the quarter-finals of any tournament in 24 years, yet Luis Aragonés's men chose to use that history as an inspiration rather than a burden. After a strong start from Germany, seeking a fourth title themselves, Spain were the more dangerous side throughout an entertaining final at the Ernst-Happel-Stadion although it took just one goal – in the 33rd minute, courtesy of Torres's pace, perseverance and unerring finish – to end their long wait.

Ballack boost
Germany received a significant boost before kick-off with captain Michael Ballack included despite a much-publicised calf problem, and, perhaps buoyed by that news, Joachim Löw's team settled quickly. Much had been made of the contrast in style between the sides yet in the opening exchanges it was Germany whose passing looked crisper, Miroslav Klose and Thomas Hitzlsperger failing to make the most of glimpses of goal. Meanwhile Spain, shorn of four-goal leading scorer David Villa due to a thigh injury, struggled to find their feet in a new 4-5-1 formation in which Cesc Fàbregas was rewarded for a fine semi-final display with a starting place.

Instinctive stop
As an indicator of the pattern of the match, however, Germany's bright beginning proved misleading. Spain soon worked their way into the contest, with Germany goalkeeper Jens Lehmann – becoming, at 38, the oldest player to appear in a UEFA European Championship final – forced into action for the first time in the 14th minute. Although his instinctive save came when his own defender, Christoph Metzelder, inadvertently deflected Andrés Iniesta's cross towards his own goal, Xavi Hernández's fine through pass had unpicked the Germany defence and showed the Spanish were finding their feet.

Torres on target
Right-back Sergio Ramos was then allowed to cut inside and deliver a deep cross, Torres peeling away from Per Mertesacker to create space for the header only for the right-hand post to come to Lehmann's rescue. The warning signs were there for Germany, yet they failed to heed them and duly fell behind three minutes past the half-hour. Again Xavi was the architect, playing a pass in behind the Germany back line towards Torres, who outmuscled a hesitant Philipp Lahm and clipped the ball over the diving Lehmann and just inside the far post. David Silva then volleyed over Iniesta's cross when given time and space inside the area as Spain threatened to increase their lead.

Spain openings
Spain had more openings in the early stages of the second half, Lehmann getting the merest of touches to Xavi's low shot before Ramos nearly guided in Silva's drive from the resulting corner. Yet a hint of the threat Germany still posed arrived on the hour, substitute Marcell Jansen and Bastian Schweinsteiger combining for Ballack to shoot centimetres wide. Klose then deflected a Schweinsteiger effort past the post and, in response to Germany's renewed menace, Spain coach Aragonés promptly introduced Xabi Alonso and Santi Cazorla in place of Fàbregas and Silva. The switches reinvigorated Spain instantly, Lehmann making smart stops from Ramos and Iniesta while Torsten Frings blocked another Iniesta effort on the line.

Celebrations
As the final moved into the last 20 minutes, Spain had had seven shots on goal to Germany's one, but with the Mannschaft having turned virtually one in two of their attempts on target into goals en route to the final, that would have been scant consolation to Aragonés and his side. In the event, however, it was Spain who continued to carve out chances as the match reached its conclusion, Marcos Senna narrowly failing to apply the finishing touch to an unselfish header from substitute Daniel Güiza – but the celebrations would not be delayed much longer.

Anwar receives death threats, in hiding

from: The Star

By V.P. SUJATA

PUTRAJAYA: Parti Keadilan Raykat leaders decided Sunday morning that the party's de facto leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim stay at the Turkish Embassy for his safety after he received death threats.

(Latest: Allies, opponents react to Anwar sodomy allegation).

His family visited him at the Embassy at Jalan U Thant Sunday evening, PKR vice-president Azmin Ali said.

At a press conference earlier Sunday, Anwar's wife and PKR president Satin Seri Wan Azizah Ismail said the death threats had come less than a day after an aide of Anwar's had lodged a police report alleging he was sodomised by the one-time deputy prime minister.

She said PKR had released pictures of the aide showing him with cabinet ministers and their high-ranking staff, which she claimed was evidence of political assassination.

Anwar was was sacked by former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad over similar allegations in 1998.

Federal CID director Comm Datuk Mohd Bakri Zinin said the police would conduct a thorough and fair investigation into the sodomy allegations.

They will also investigate the allegations before taking a statement from Anwar, he said.

Earlier Sunday, Current Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi reiterated that the Barisan Nasional Government was not behind the latest allegation of sodomy against Anwar.

Stating that he was shocked on hearing the police report lodged by an aide of Anwar on Saturday night, Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said he would leave the police to conduct investigations on the allegations and to take the necessary action.

He said he or the Government did not instruct the police to take any action.

On Anwar's statement that the allegations were a complete fabrication to kill his political career, as in 1998 when he was sacked as Deputy Prime Minister, Abdullah said the Government had nothing to do with the police report.

"We are not (involved). Umno and Barisan Nasional did not plan to trouble, disturb or accuse him.

"I believe even my friends like (Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri) Najib (Tun Razak) did not have any intention to do such a thing to him," he told reporters here on Sunday after launching the Bumi Hijau programme.

Abdullah said the alleged victim has the right to lodge a police report if it had really happened.

When asked if Anwar would be arrested following the latest allegation, Abdullah said he did not want to speculate on the matter and would leave the matter to the police.

Meanwhile the aide, who had started working at PKR about three months ago to help in the 12th general election, had lodged a police report alleging sodomy by the PKR leader at about 5.45pm on Saturday.

The man, in his 20s, is being treated at a hospital in Kuala Lumpur.

Anwar called for an urgent press conference at 1.20am Sunday morning to deny the allegations.

In a statement read out by PKR vice-president Sivarasa Rasiah at a hotel in Shah Alam, he described the allegations as “total fabrication”.

The statement, which was also faxed to media offices, said: “The police report lodged against me today is a complete fabrication. I believe we are witnessing a repeat of the methods used against me in 1998 when false allegations were made under duress.”

Sources said police were waiting for the medical report from the hospital before proceeding with investigations.

They also said Anwar was expected to be called up by the police to have his statement recorded.

DAP adviser Lim Kit Siang posted in his blog early Sunday morning that he had spoken to Anwar over the phone and "he is expecting the worst."

"SMS and phone calls have been flying around of imminent police action against Anwar Ibrahim.

"I have spoken to Anwar over the phone and he is expecting the worst," Lim said.

Sodomy allegation
Anwar and his adopted brother Sukma Darmawan Sasmitaat Madja were found guilty by the Kuala Lumpur High Court on Aug 8, 2000 on the charge of sodomising Anwar's former family driver, Azizan Abu Bakar, at Sukma's apartment in Tivoli Villa, Bangsar, between January and March 1993.

Anwar was sentenced to nine years' jail while Sukma received six years and ordered to be given four strokes of the rotan. Sukma was also convicted by the High Court on a charge of abetting Anwar in the commission of the offence.

In 2003, the Court of Appeal dismissed their appeals.

Anwar was first convicted for corruption on April 14, 1999 and was jailed for six years.

He should have been released on April 14, 2003 after a one-third remission but had to start serving his sentence for the sodomy offence, which the court ordered to be served consecutively.

Anwar was freed in 2004 after the Federal Court acquitted him of the charge of sodomising his former family driver.

The three-person Federal Court bench reached a 2-1 majority decision when they allowed the former deputy prime minister's appeal and overturned the conviction and nine-year jail term six years after his sacking as deputy prime minister.

The panel headed by Federal Court judge Justice Abdul Hamid Mohamad also allowed Sukma’s appeal.

Court of Appeal judge Tengku Baharuddin Shah Tengku Mahmud concurred with Justice Abdul Hamid while Federal Court judge Justice Rahmah Hussain dissented.

Justice Abdul Hamid Mohamad held that from the record of appeal, he found evidence that the appellants were involved in homosexual activities and was inclined to believe that the alleged incident at Tivoli Villa did occur.

However, he said the Federal Court could only convict Anwar and Sukma if the prosecution had successfully proved beyond reasonable doubt the alleged offences stated in the charges based on admissible evidence and in accordance with established principles of law.

"We may be convinced in our minds of the guilt or innocence of the appellants but our decision must only be based on the evidence adduced and nothing else," he said.

Pertembungan dua gergasi

petikan: Harian Metro

VIENNA: Pertarungan merebut takhta Euro 2008 kini tertumpu kepada pertembungan dua pemain tengah antara Micheal Ballack dan Cesc Fabregas, mempertaruhkan kekuatan kapten Jerman itu dengan kelincahan pemain Sepanyol dalam penentuan final, awal pagi esok.

Jika Ballack dan rakan sepasukannya, Torsten Frings serta Thomas Hitzlsperger mampu menguasai perlawanan maka sejarah kemenangan Jerman akan kembali berulang, kali ini di Stadium Ernst Happel.

Bagaimanapun jika Fabregas, Xavi, Andres Iniesta dan jentera Sepanyol yang lain mampu menggempur dan memusnahkan keampuhan kubu lawan, maka penantian Sepanyol untuk meraih trofi selama 44 tahun akan berakhir.

Fabregas dilihat sentiasa mengisi bangku simpanan dalam kebanyakan perlawanan sepanjang laluan Sepanyol ke final tetapi selepas menampilkan aksi cemerlang sewaktu menggantikan penyerang, David Villa hingga membelasah Russia, 3-0 menjadikan pemain itu sebagai pilihan utama.

Ballack sebaliknya kurang menyengat biarpun pasukannya menumpaskan Turki, 3-2 tetapi dengan keyakinan dan semangat tinggi untuk menebus kegagalan beraksi di final Piala Dunia 2002 akibat penggantungan, mampu menjadikannya pemain terbaik perlawanan itu.

Jurulatihnya, Joachim Loew turut berpegang kepada matlamat kemenangan yang sama. “Kami mempunyai mentaliti juara dan akan membawanya ke final,” katanya mengenai misi Jerman meraih gelaran Eropah keempat selain memiliki tiga Piala Dunia.

Sepanyol yang beraksi dalam final pertama sejak 1984 dan memburu kemenangan kedua selepas kejayaan Euro 1964 di laman sendiri, menyedari cabaran yang perlu dihadapi mereka tetapi kini dengan keyakinan yang semakin bertambah selepas berjaya melepasi halangan apabila sering tewas di peringkat suku akhir dalam mana-mana kejohanan besar.

“Jerman adalah Jerman dan mereka dilihat mampu menang biar siapa pun yang diturunkan,” kata jurulatih Sepanyol, Luis Aragones.

“Bagaimanapun kami bukan pasukan yang mudah ditentang, terutamanya dengan corak permainan pantas yang dimiliki,” katanya.

Setiap pasukan dijangka hanya menurunkan satu penyerang iaitu Fernando Torres bagi Sepanyol dan Miroslav Klose mewakili Jerman yang menjaringkan dua gol dalam dua perlawanan terakhirnya, memikul tanggungjawab lebih besar berbanding pemain tengah.

Gandingan dua pemain Jerman, Bastian Schweinsteiger dan Lukas Podolski dengan jumlah lima gol yang dijaringkan, mampu menjadi ancaman baik sebagai penggerak mahupun penyudah.

Jentera Sepanyol turut memiliki momentum tambahan, apabila mula membentuk lima pemain barisan tengah yang lebih mantap selepas Villa selaku penjaring terbanyak kejohanan cedera dalam separuh masa pertama yang hampir pasti terlepas peluang ke final, Khamis lalu.

Sejak sepak mula menentang Russia, Sepanyol dilihat lebih berbisa berbanding ketika menentang Itali di mana kehadiran Fabregas memberi sentuhan istimewa apabila menyertai pasukan utama.

Mereka mungkin berpeluang untuk memenangi perlawanan itu sekiranya berjaya menembusi empat pemain di barisan pertahanan Jerman.

Ancaman berterusan Klose memberikan cabaran berbeza buat pasukan lawan tetapi pertahanan Sepanyol juga dilihat semakin kemas dengan kemampuan bek tengah Carles Puyol mampu mengesan sebarang bahaya manakala penjaga gol Iker Casillas mengawal ketat kubu Sepanyol. -Reuters

Khairy Belum Putuskan Untuk Bertanding Ketua Pemuda

29 Jun, 2008 21:23 PM

TEMERLOH, 29 Jun (Bernama) -- Naib Ketua Pergerakan Pemuda Umno Khairy Jamaluddin berkata beliau masih belum memutuskan untuk bertanding jawatan ketua pergerakan itu pada pemilihan parti Disember ini kerana masih belum mendapat gambaran sebenar sokongan akar umbi terhadapnya.

Beliau berkata sekalipun mendapat sambutan hebat setiap kali melawat pergerakan pemuda Umno bahagian, namun sambutan itu disifatkannya sebagai adat biasa bagi meraikan pemimpin yang datang.

"Masih terlalu awal untuk membuat keputusan," katanya ketika ditemui pemberita selepas mengadakan perjumpaan dengan Pemuda Umno Bahagian Temerloh di sini, Ahad.

Beliau berkata calon-calon lain yang menawarkan diri sebelum ini juga perlu menilai sokongan akar umbi terhadap mereka sebelum memutuskan untuk bertanding jawatan itu.

Khairy berkata beliau mungkin akan "mendapat ilham" bagi memutuskan untuk bertanding atau sebaliknya jawatan itu selepas menamatkan jadual perjumpaan dengan akar umbi seluruh negara pada 17 Julai depan.

Mengulas tentang laporan polis oleh seorang lelaki berusia 23 tahun di Balai Polis Travers, Kuala Lumpur yang mendakwa diliwat oleh Penasihat Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim pada 26 Jun lepas di sebuah tempat di ibu negara, Khairy berkata laporan itu mungkin hanya satu konspirasi pihak Anwar sendiri yang cuba meraih simpati masyarakat terhadapnya.

Khairy berkata bekas Timbalan Perdana Menteri itu sanggup melakukan apa sahaja taktik untuk menarik perhatian masyarakat kononnya beliau sedang menghadapi ancaman di negara ini.

"Kemungkinan Anwar sendiri yang menyuruh pembantunya itu supaya membuat laporan polis dan ini adalah satu taktik konspirasi beliau untuk meraih simpati orang ramai," katanya.

Khairy berkata biarlah pihak polis melakukan siasatan terperinci berhubung laporan berkenaan.

Saiful Bukhari Azlan: the mole in Anwar Ibrahim's office

The following photographs were sent to us on 12th March 2008, soon after the 12th General Election. After it became known that he is a mole planted in Anwar Ibrahim's office, the trap was laid to turn the hunter into the hunted. And, true to form, the hunter laid his trap only to walk into it himself, with devastating results.

Azizah dedah gambar Saiful Bukhari dengan orang kanan Najib

Wan Nordin Wan Yaacob | Foto Wan Zahari Wan Salleh Sun | Jun 29, 08 | 2:13:55 pm MYT

SHAH ALAM, 29 Jun (Hrkh) - Terkini!!!!!Presiden Parti Keadilan Rakyat (KeADILan), Datin Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail dalam sidang media sebentar tadi mendedahkan gambar pengadu kes Anwar, Saiful Bukhari Azlan dengan Pegawai Khas kepada Timbalan Perdana Menteri, Khairil Anas Yusof. Gambar itu akhirnya mencetus tanda tanya samada kes dakwaan liwat terbaru membabitkan Anwar itu adalah berpunca dari konspirasi seseorang. Beliau tidak mendedahkan siapa yang menyerahkan gambar tersebut namun disyaki adanya konspirasi seperti kes pada tahun 1998 membabitkan Anwar. Namun menurut sumber, Saiful adalah Pegawai Khas Anwar yang menjadi sukarelawan ketika pilihan raya umum lalu dan beliau dikatakan bukan ahli KeADILan. Wan Azizah yang mengulas perkembangan terbaru itu menyatakan rasa kecewa dengan dakwaan tersebut yang dikatakan sekali lagi untuk menjatuhkan Anwar. Malah menurut Timbalan Presiden KeADILan, Dr Syed Husin Ali, kini konspirasi itu bukan sahaja untuk menjatuhkan Anwar malah mengancam hidup Anwar. Pimpinan KeADILan sepakat mengecam konspirasi terbaru ini yang nyata sekali untuk menjatuhkan Anwar tatkala perkembangan KeADILan semakin hampir memerintah kerajaan, kata Syed Husin. Pimpinan KeADILan sendiri sepakat tidak mempercayai dakwaan Saiful itu malah menyokong penuh kepimpinan Anwar. Suasana di perkarangan hotel dekat sini semakin bising dengan laungan reformasi dan takbir. Sejak semalam, timbul desas-desus yang menyatakan bahawa Anwar akan ditahan ekoran satu laporan polis yang dibuat terhadapnya semalam. Laporan tersebut dibuat oleh pembantu khas Anwar, Saiful Bukhari Azlan yang mendakwa telah diliwat oleh bekas Timbalan Perdana Menteri tersebut. Sumber KeADILan mengatakan bahawa polis telah menahan pembantu khas Anwar semalam dan memaksanya membuat laporan polis yang dia diliwat oleh Anwar. Sementara Saiful Bukhari dikatakan sedang memberi keterangan di salah sebuah balai polis di Kuala Lumpur. Anwar bagaimanapun menafikan dakwaan dalam laporan tersebut dan mendakwanya ianya merupakan satu rekaan semata-mata. Sebaliknya, beliau berkata, laporan tersebut diatur oleh pihak-pihak yang berkepentingan untuk 'menyerangnya' sebagai tindak balas terhadap bukti yang diperolehinya, yang membabitkan Ketua Polis Negara, Tan Sri Musa Hassan dan Peguam Negara, Tan Sri Gani Patail berhubung salah laku,termasuk mereka bukti dalam kes-kes terhadapnya pada 1998-1999. Anwar dijangka membuat laporan polis berhubung bukti-bukti yang diperolehinya itu hari ini. Presiden KeADILan Datin Seri Wan Azizah Wan Ismail mengesahkan perkara itu tetapi tidak diketahui bila dan di mana laporan itu akan dibuat. Dalam kenyataannya pagi tadi, Wan Azizah berkata, Saiful merupakan seorang sukarelawan yang tampil membantu KeADILan, sewaktu pilihan raya umum lalu. Ekoran itu, katanya, mereka tidak membuat sebarang semakan latar belakang pengadu. Mengenai laporan tersebut, beliau berkata, ia bertujuan untuk mencemarkan masa depan politik Anwar. Menurut Wan Azizah perkara yang sama berlaku sepertimana 10 tahun yang dulu. Anwar, bekas TPM dan Menteri Kewangan, dipecat dari kerajaan pada 1998 kerana didakwa menyalahguna kuasa dan dituduh terbabit dalam perbuatan liwat. Pada 1999, beliau dijatuhkan hukuman penjara enam tahun atas tuduhan salahguna kuasa dan pada tahun 2000, dijatuhkan hukuman sembilan tahun penjara atas tuduhan liwat. Bagaimanapun, pada 2004, Mahkamah Persekutuan telah membatalkan sabitan hukuman liwat dan membebaskan Anwar. Anwar mendakwa tuduhan terhadapnya itu merupakan satu konspirasi politik terhadapnya, tetapi kerajaan menafikannya. Laporan lanjut menyusul./wann_

Siasat dakwaan liwat ke atas Anwar, PM nafi BN terbabit

Harakahdaily
Sun | Jun 29, 08 | 3:36:54 pm MYT

KUALA LUMPUR, 29 Jun (Hrkh) - Perdana Menteri Dato' Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi menyerahkan kepada polis untuk mengadakan siasatan bagi menentukan kesahihan berhubung dakwaan bahawa Ketua Umum KeADILan, Dato' Seri Anwar Ibrahim meliwat seorang pembantunya.

Katanya, siasatan wajar dibuat dan bukan hanya bergantung kepada penafian Anwar sahaja kerana sepertimana kes jenayah lain, sudah semestinya sesiapa sahaja yang dituduh akan menafikannya.

"Kalau sudah begitu pihak polis lah yang kena ambil apa-apa tindakan yang sewajarnya. Laporan telah diberi, polis akan buat siasatan dan tentukan bahawa benda itu betul atau tidak betul.

"Apa yang Anwar kata bukan kita boleh tentukan...dia tentulah buat penafian. Itu lazimnya begitulah. Orang yang dituduh akan buat penafian,' katanya kepada pemberita selepas melancarkan Program Bumi Hijau Warga Putrajaya Bersama Perdana Menteri di Putrajaya hari ini.

Perdana Menteri mengulas demikian merujuk kepada laporan polis di Balai Polis Travers, oleh seorang lelaki berumur 23 tahun yang mendakwa diliwat oleh pemimpin itu pada 26 Jun lalu di sebuah tempat di ibu negara, demikian menurut laporan Bernama.

Dalam reaksi balasnya, Anwar menafikan dakwaan meliwat pembantunya itu sambil menyifatkan dakwaan terbaru itu 'hanya rekaan semata-mata'.

Anwar menyifatkan ia bertujuan untuk menyekat kebangkitan karier politiknya selepas pakatan pembangkang mencapai kemenangan besar pada pilihan raya umum Mac lalu.

Abdullah yang juga Pengerusi Barisan Nasional (BN) menafikan dakwaan bahawa BN merancang untuk menyekat kebangkitan karier politik Anwar dengan melemparkan berbagai-bagai tohmahan terhadap bekas Timbalan Perdana Menteri itu.

"Umno tak terfikir nak kacau dia macam ini. BN pun tak terfikir nak menyusahkan dia, nak kacau atau nak timbulkan perkara yang macam ini kerana nak buat sesuatu yang tak baik pada dia.

"Tidak ada niat seumpama ini...tak terlintas dalam fikiran saya langsung untuk nak khianati dia. Saya dan kawan-kawan saya, Datuk Seri Najib (Tun Razak) pun tak terfikir macam itu.

"Orang yang berkenaan yang buat laporan, kita nak buat apa lagi. Dia ada hak untuk buat laporan. Kita tidak boleh menegah dia buat laporan. Kita tidak ada sebarang rancangan untuk membuat sesuatu pada dia (Anwar) kerana dia kata dia sudah pulih balik dalam politik," katanya.

Ditanya adakah Anwar akan ditahan polis, Perdana Menteri berkata: 'Saya tidak mahu kata apa-apa mengenainya, cukuplah...tiada spekulasi, tiada"

"Apa yang saya tahu ialah satu laporan telah dibuat kepada polis dan polis akan tentukan apa yang mereka mahu lakukan dan bagaimana," kata Abdullah./wann _

Konspirasi politik cuba jatuhkan imej Anwar � Nik Aziz

petikan: Harakah Daily

Sun | Jun 29, 08 | 2:23:00 pm MYT

PENGKALAN CHEPA, 29 Jun (Hrkh) - Mursyidul Am PAS, Tuan Guru Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat tidak menolak kemungkinan tuduhan liwat terhadap Ketua Umum KeADILan, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim merupakan satu konspirasi politik.

Ini kerja-kerja politik belaka. Geng-geng politik semua, kerana tidak beriman. Dalam blog pun dibuat macam-macam tuduhan.. apa ni,� katanya ketika ditemui di Lapangan Terbang Sultan Ismail Petra, sebelum berlepas ke Kuala Lumpur, hari ini.

Semalam pembantu khas Anwar, Saiful Bukhari Azlan dilaporkan mendakwa diliwat oleh bekas Timbalan Perdana Menteri terbabit.

Bagaimanapun Anwar menafikan dakwaan itu yang dianggap cuba mengulangi kes serupa pada 1998.

Beliau dipecat oleh Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad daripada jawatannya pada 1998 kerana didakwa menyalahguna kuasa dan dituduh terbabit dengan perbuatan liwat.

Kemudian pada 1999 Anwar dijatuhkan hukuman penjara enam tahun atas tuduhan salahguna kuasa dan pada 2000 dikenakan hukuman penjara sembilan tahun atas tuduhan liwat.

Bagaimanapun pada 2004 Mahkamah Persekutuan telah membatalkan sabitan hukuman liwat dan sekaligus membebaskan Anwar.

Tuan Guru Nik Abdul Aziz yang juga Menteri Besar Kelantan berkata, di negara ini tuduhan liwat terhadap seseorang bagi menjatuhkan karier politiknya seperti menjadi amalan biasa.

Di Malaysia sudah jadi begitu suka tuduh menuduh. Berapa kali telah dibuat tuduhan begitu.

Liwat ini bukan orang buat di atas jalan raya, perbuatan itu dilakukan secara sulit sekiranya benar ia berlaku. Mengapa pula senang-senang hendak tuduh orang lain.

Allah Taala akan kenakan bala ke atas orang yang menuduh,� ujar beliau.

Menurutnya juga dalam Islam ada lima perkara yang mesti dikenakan hudud iaitu murtad kerana ia terlibat dengan akidah, dan mencuri membabitkan harta benda orang lain.

Manakala tuduhan zina boleh menjatuhkan maruah seseorang.

Beliau berkata, tuduhan zina mesti ada sekurang-kurang empat orang saksi kalau tidak, boleh dirotan atau denda terhadap orang yang membuat tuduhan.

Menurutnya hakim sudah melepaskan Anwar terhadap tuduhan liwat sebelum ini dan sekarang tuduhan serupa pula cuba diulangi.

Tuduhan zina ini berkehendak kepada saksi, tidak boleh tidak,� katanya. Beliau juga mengakui tuduhan yang dibuat itu secara tidak langsung boleh menjejaskan imej pembangkang.

Bukan itu sahaja malah boleh menjejaskan imej negara, apa sebab hendak buat tuduh menuduh begini,� katanya.

Beliau berkata begitu juga dengan tuduhan rasuah terhadap seseorang mesti ada bukti yang jelas dan tidak boleh dibuat sesuka hati. - mj _

Kes Tuduhan Liwat DSAI (Dari Laman Marhaen)

Supporters of Malaysia’s de facto opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim wait at a hotel lobby in Shah Alam outside Kuala Lumpur June 29, 2008. Anwar denied on Sunday allegations that he had sodomised an aide, saying the charges were an attempt by the government to curb his rise to power. “The police report lodged against me earlier today is a complete fabrication,” Anwar said in a statement read out by his lawyer as about 200 of his supporters gathered outside the hotel where the news briefing was held.Reuters Pictures

Anwar dakwa laporan polis satu tindak balas

Petikan http://www.malaysiakini.com

Jun 29, 08 2:19am

Ketua Umum PKR, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim berkata laporan polis yang dibuat terhadapnya yang mendakwa beliau telah meliwat seorang kakitanganya, adalah satu rekaan semata-mata.

Dalam satu kenyataannya awal pagi ini, Anwar percayai ia adalah ulangan daripada apa yang berlaku pada 1998 di mana dakwaan yang sama dilemparkan terhadapnya secara paksaan.

Katanya, ia jelas merupakan satu percubaan terdesak regim Barisan Nasional (BN) untuk menyekat pergerakan rakyat Malayaia ke arah kebebasan, demokrasi dan keadilan.

Laporan tersebut dibuat oleh mangsa yang berusia 23 tahun di balai polis Jalan Travers jam 6 petang tadi. Ketua Polis Kuala Lumpur, Datuk Muhammad Sabtu Osman mengesahkan laporan tersebut dibuat.

PKR telah menghantar SMS mengatakan bahawa polis telah menahan pembantu Anwar, Saiful Bahari petang semalam dan memaksanya membuat laporan polis yang dia diliwat oleh Anwar.

Ia menambah, polis dijangka menangkap Anwar tidak lama lagi.

Menurut kenyataan itu lagi, Anwar berkata laporan tersebut diatur oleh pihak-pihak yang berkepentingan untuk “menyerangnya” sebagai tindak balas terhadap bukti yang diperolehinya, yang membabitkan Ketua Polis Negara, Tan Sri Musa Hassan dan Peguam Negara, Tan Sri Gani Patail berhubung salahlaku,termasuk mereka bukti dalam kes-kes terhadapnya pada 1998-1999.

Bagaimanapun, tegas Anwar, perbuatan tersebut tidak akan menghalang beliau daripada mendedahkan perkara itu kepada orang ramai.

Tegakkan keadilan

Sehubungan itu, beliau menggesa rakyat Malaysia menentang kuasa tekanan dari pihak kerajaan dalam tempoh beberapa hari dan minggu-minggu yang akan datang.

Anwar berkata, pihaknya menjangka pihak media, badan kehakiman dan pasukan polis akan dikawal oleh pihak eksekutif.

Sebagai susulan kepada pilihanraya umum 8 Mac lalu, Anwar menegaskan bahawa rakyat mesti meningkatkan kekuatan dan kesungguhan ke arah mencapai kebebasan dan keadilan untuk semua rakyat.

Sementara itu, semakin ramai penyokong Anwar kini berkumpul di Hotel Quality Shah Alam awal pagi ini ekoran satu laporan polis oleh seorang kakitangannya yang mendakwa dilihat oleh Ketua Umum PKR itu.

Anwar, bekas timbalan perdana menteri dan menteri kewangan, dipecat dari kerajaan pada 1997 kerana didakwa menyalahguna kuasa atau terbabit dalam perbuatan liwat.

Pada 1999, beliau dijatuhkan hukuman penjara enam tahun atas tuduhan salahguna kuasa dan pada tahun 2000, dijatuhkan hukuman sembilan tahun penjara atas tuduhan liwat.

Bagaimanapun, pada 2004, Mahkamah Persekutuan telah membatalkan sabitan hukuman tersebut dan membebaskan Anwar.

Anwar mendakwa tuduhan terhadapnya itu merupakan satu konspirasi politik terhadapnya, tetapi kerajaan menafikannya.

Kenyataan Anwar Ibrahim Mengenai Laporan Polis

29 hb Jun 2008, SHAH ALAM, MALAYSIA

Laporan polis yang dibuat terhadap saya awal pagi ini adalah satu rekaan semata-mata. Saya percaya kita sedang menyaksikan ulangan pendekatan sama yang digunakan terhadap saya pada tahun 1998 apabila tuduhan palsu dibuat dengan paksaan. Nyatalah ini satu tindakan terdesak oleh regim Barisan Nasional untuk menghalang usaha rakyat Malaysia menuju kebebasan, demokrasi dan keadilan.

Laporan palsu ini dirancang oleh pihak-pihak berkepentingan untuk menyerang saya sebagai satu serangan balas terhadap bukti yang saya perolehi mengaitkan Ketua Polis Negara Musa Hasan dan Peguam Negara Gani Patail dengan perbuatan salah laku, termasuk usaha pemalsuan bukti-bukti kes yang melibatkan saya pada tahun 1998-99. Serangan jahat ini tidak akan menghalang saya dari mendedahkan bukti-bukti tersebut kepada awam.

Saya menyeru rakyat Malaysia untuk bangun menentang kuasa-kuasa menindas yang akan digunakan oleh kerajaan pada hari dan minggu-minggu berikutnya. Kita menjangkakan pihak media, badan kehakiman dan pihak polis akan tunduk di bawah telunjuk serta arahan pemerintah.

Rakan-rakanku rakyat Malaysia- kita telah mengambil langkah berani pada 8hb Mac 2008 untuk mara demi harapan baru untuk kebebasan dan keadilan untuk semua rakyat. Gerakan rakyat untuk perubahan mesti terus maju dengan segala kekuatan dan keberanian.

Kenyataan Anwar Ibrahim

UNE 29, 2008, KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA

I am issuing this statement from within the embassy of the Republic of Turkey in Kuala Lumpur. I was transported to the embassy earlier this morning fearing that my personal safety was in danger. I thank all those who offered to assist me in this time of need and am grateful to the Turkish Ambassador for extending an invitation to seek refuge within the Embassy.

Since the March 8th elections, numerous credible sources from within the government and military intelligence have advised me that certain agents from within Barisan Nasional leadership have initiated plots to cause harm to me or my family or my supporters. I have been told that my assassination has not been ruled out as means to subvert the people’s will and bring an end to the transformational changes taking place in Malaysia.

Notwithstanding the threats which are intended to silence my voice, I intend make public new evidence implicating that the Inspector General of the Police Musa Hassan and the Attorney General Gani Patail engaged in criminal acts of fabricating evidence in cases launched against me in 1998.

The allegations that have been made against me on Saturday are nothing more than a replay of the events which transpired in 1998 when I was sacked from the office of the Deputy Prime Minister, jailed and beaten, and then charged and convicted by a kangaroo court for crimes which I never committed. This charade was orchestrated by a corrupt Barisan Nasional leadership which made use of the entire apparatus of the state power including its control of the judiciary, the police force, and its grip on the mainstream media. These actions are being repeated today to undermine the forces of reform and renewal which were unleashed in the March 2008 elections.

I would like to assure my family, friends and supporters in Malaysia that I am safe and remain committed as ever before to continuing the struggle for a free and just Malaysia.
