Seah can't answer why the stain's on the front....

The afternoon of the Anwar Ibrahim sodomy trial brought a pertinent question that chemist Dr Seah Lay Hong could not answer: why was the seminal stain found on the front portion of Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan's grey underwear and not at the back?

This question arose after a suggestion that Saiful's alleged assailant had ejaculated inside the complainant's anus, after which a significant amount of seminal fluid would flow out to the back portion of the complainant's underwear.

However, according to Seah's testimony, the first seminal stain was found on the front portion of Saiful's underwear and the second, which contained the DNA of “Male Y”, was found on the front bottom portion. Asked how the seminal stain could have been found in the front portion of the underwear, Seah refused to answer, saying she could not answer speculative questions.

Defence lawyer Ram Karpal prepared the foundation for his argument by suggesting that the seminal stain was found on the front portion of Saiful's black trousers. He suggested the stain could have originated from the portion of the underwear corresponding to the spot where it touched the trousers, which could have resulted in such an outcome.

Ram had the court room in stitches when Seah seemed puzzled, and the lawyer then said, “It must be this way as Saiful could not have been wearing his underpants on the outside, like 'Superman'.” To this suggestion, Seah agreed on the possibility of Saiful's underwear touching the trousers.

Ram: In this case, if there is ejaculation into the anus, would you find the semen stain leaking at the back of the underwear?

Seah: I refuse to answer as this is speculative.

Ram: (Haven't) you answered speculative questions by the prosecution (before)? Isn't it reasonable to expect (this)? I am suggesting to you it would be reasonable to find the semen stain at the back of the underwear.

Seah: I can't answer as it is speculative.

Ram: So you agree or disagree?

Seah: I agree and disagree.

Own seminal stain in anus?

Ram went on to focus on the B8 cotton swab that was retrieved from Saiful's high rectal area, where the semen stain was found to have a DNA prevalently belonging to Saiful. He suggested the possibility of the high DNA count was because the seminal stain belonged to Saiful himself.

Ram: You said the DNA sample in B8 showed that “Male Y” was weak and the prevalent one from the semen stain was that of Saiful himself. Can the semen belonging to Saiful be found in his anus?

Seah: I do not agree.

Ram: But in the sperm extract (refer to the report) on B8 had shown them to be mainly Saiful's, as he is the predominant contributor in the high rectal swab with the allele reading of 12, 13 being more dominant than the profile for “Male Y”. (Seah had earlier testified that the allele of 12 and 13 belonged to Saiful).

Seah: I disagree as there are two types of extract found, the non-sperm and sperm extracts, and Saiful's DNA profile is from the non-sperm. (This was despite 12 and 13 belonging to Saiful being prevalent in the sperm extract).

Ram also touched on the possibility of degradation of seminal stains inside Saiful's anus due to the fact the sample was taken only at 9pm on June 28, 2008, or 56 hours after the incident.
(The alleged sodomy incident happened about 3.15pm on June 26, 2008).

The lawyer, who is the son of senior lawyer Karpal Singh, seemed to get the witness into tatters when he posed this scenario. Seah replied that she had not performed the test on the degradation of the sample, but mainly focused on finding the DNA.

Hospital Kuala Lumpur's Dr Razali Ibrahim had testified that Saiful's rectum was empty, despite the star witness and complainant's testimony in court that he had not defecated for two days. Razali had also testified that the anus was the most contaminated place in the body, with the amount of bacteria and contaminants.

Hairy argument

Ram today also pointed out the inconsistency in Seah's report when the issue of “hair” came up.

The report states she received a strand of hair from DSP Jude Blacious Pereira, which was located behind the door and on the floor of the apartment where the sodomy allegedly took place. However, in her chemist's report, Seah states that it is pubic hair. Explaining this, Seah said she stated it as pubic hair after conducting tests on it.

Hearing before Kuala Lumpur High Court judge Justice Mohamad Zabidin Mohd Diah continues tomorrow, with the continued cross-examination of Seah by defence counsel Sankara Nair.

Dalam skrip rekaan UMNO tak terulis bila peguam soalan demikian,jadi Seah terpaksa memberi jawapan bodoh. Tapi gelar dirinya pakar forensik DNA 1Malaysia......

Apa yang menghairankan ialah macam mana Saifool pancut maninya masuk dalam juboqnya sendiri? Jika betul mengapa Saifool mahu atau sanggup buat demikian?

Yang sebenarnya, air mani Saifool yang ada dalam juboq Saifool adalah diletakkan di situ oleh orang2 tertentu, mungkin orang tersebut sangka itu Anwar yang punya....

Konspirasi mula terlondeh....

cheers.
