“I think when we consider the sexual act, it is very, very unlikely that is possible; based on examination of Anwar and findings of MRI, it is not possible for a man his age (to have performed the alleged act),” Dr Hoogland said in his second day at the witness box.
The Dutch surgeon said Anwar would have been in significant pain had he engaged in any act that involving bending and “kneeling”.
He said Anwar’s operation in 2004 left him with arthritis and that his condition had worsened between then and 2008.
Anwar, who has a history of back problems, is accused of sodomising 26-year-old Saiful, a former aide.
The opposition leader was last examined by Dr Hoogland on September 8 this year.
The trial is currently on-going with the Solicitor-General II Datuk Mohd Yusof Zainal Abiden cross-examining Dr Hoogland.
