8.45am: Lead defence counsel Karpal Singh arrives at the Desa Dammansara condominium. Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim and the defence team are visiting one of the units in the posh condominium.
The defence wants to inspect Unit 11-5-2, which is next to Unit 11-5-1, where former aide Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan alleged he was sodomised by Anwar.
The defence has argued that Anwar and the people he was meeting with were in Unit 11-5-2, next to the one where Saiful had testified that the opposition leader propositioned him for sex after he delivered a document.
On Tuesday, the defence team failed to gain access to the condo unit when the police brought the wrong set of keys.
Unit 11-5-2 and Unit 11-5-1 are both owned by one Hasanuddin, who is said to be a close friend of Anwar. Unit 11-5-2 is where Hasanuddin stays, but he is currently out of town with his family.
The court hearing of the controversial trial will resume later this morning after the condo visit.
