KUALA LUMPUR (Feb 4, 2010): The High Court heard today that Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan told a Hospital Kuala Lumpur (HKL) doctor frankly that he was there for an examination as he had been sodomised by Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
Saiful, 25, a former personal aide to Anwar, who was testifying on the second day at Anwar's trial, said he had gone to two hospitals earlier before HKL where he registered himself at about 3pm at the Outpatient Ward, for a medical examination.

Condominium, where they say the alleged sodomy took place.
He said he saw a female Indian doctor but told her that he was shy as she is a woman. The doctor then suggested that he see a male doctor, whose room was next to her.
Saiful said he then met with the male doctor, whose name was Dr Daniel.
"When I met Dr Daniel, I was tired and I told him frankly that I came to HKL for an examination as I had been sodomised by Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim," said Saiful.
"He was a bit shocked," said Saiful, adding that the doctor then wrote a note for him to go to the Emergency Ward at One Stop Crisis Centre (OCSS).
He then went to OCSS where he was visited by doctors, including one who took his blood pressure.
Saiful said when he told a doctor he wants a specific examination as he had been sodomised.
When advised by the doctor to lodge a police report because without the police report, an examination could not be conducted on him, Saiful said he told the doctor he wanted to lodge a report.
Asked by Solicitor-General II Datuk Mohd Yusof Zainal Abiden how he got a form to lodge a police report, Saiful said two police personnel, one female and male came to him with a form.
Q: You did not call the police?
A: No
He said four doctors, including three men and a pregnant female doctor and a few nurses then examined him at about 9pm in the presence of ASP Jude Pereira.

He said while being examined by the doctor who had told him to take off his pants and lie on the bed, he told the doctor that he had been sodomised.
Saiful said the doctor immediately stopped examining him and told him to wear his pants, after which the doctor gave him advice.
The doctor said the hospital does not have the facilities to conduct a forensic examination and that a report from private hospital would not be accepted as evidence in court.
Saiful said the doctor also told him to go to a government hospital and suggested HKL.
At the court yesterday, Saiful also identified Dr. Mohamad Osman. The court was also shown CCTV recordings of Saiful getting into and out of a lift, to the fifth floor of Desa Damansara Condominium.
Saiful, who was seen holding a bag in the recordings, was asked to confirmed that it was him. He also identified several photos of himself. -- theSun
