SODOMY II Although Anwar Ibrahim's sodomy trial entered its second day today, the defence team has yet to obtain the witness list from the prosecution.
One of Anwar's lawyers, Sankara Nair said they would file an application on Monday at the High Court, should they fail to get the witness list tomorrow given that normally, in a criminal trial the witness list was given latest by the first day of the trial.
Sankara said now that the trial had commenced for two days, the defence had yet to receive the witness list.
He told reporters outside the Jalan Duta court complex that with the list being held by the prosecution, it would be like a trial or prosecution by ambush.
