COMMENT Reading the opinion of the appellate court in rejecting a stay of proceedings in Sodomy II induced a sense of deja vu.
Last Friday, judge Sulong Matjeraie, who led a three-member Court of Appeal panel, held that the court found the ruling made by High Court judge Mohamad Zabidin Diah in not allowing for a stay of proceedings in the sodomy case against Anwar valid. The stay was applied by Anwar after it was found that there were material contradictions between the statements made by his accuser, Mohd Saiful Bhukari Azlan, and the charge preferred against him.
