DPP Farah Azlina Latif has been removed from the prosecution team in Anwar Ibrahim's current sodomy trial, according to Attorney-General Abdul Gani Patail.
According to a news alert by the Sun, her removal follows allegations made by blogger Raja Petra Kamaruddin in an article on July 22, that she has had an intimate relationship with Saiful Bukhari Azlan (left), Anwar's accuser and another report by Berita Harian Online said that Farah Azlina's removal takes effect immediately.

This latest turn of events will likely add some fireworks when the otherwise snail's pace trial resumes on Aug 2.
Contacted by Malaysiakini, defence counsel Sankara Nair said that the decision by the AG's Chambers came as a major shock for the defence team as there were no reasons given for dropping her even though a letter to seek a confirmation or denial over Raja Petra's allegation was sent to the AG's Chambers yesterday.
