Peguam yang mewakili Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, Sankara Nair berkata, tindakan peguam negara memfailkan notis rayuan terhadap keputusan kes fitnah II, membuktikan penganiayaan politik terhadap ketua pembangkang itu.
Beliau mengulas keputusan Pejabat Peguam Negara hari ini memfailkan notis rayuan terhadap keputusan Mahkamah Tinggi membebaskan Anwar dari pertuduhan liwat, 9 Januari lalu.
Dalam satu kenyataan segera lewat petang tadi, Sankara berkata beliau belum secara rasmi dimaklumkan perkara itu oleh pihak pendakwa.
“Bagaimanapun jika benar, maka itu adalah paling disesali dan kejam kerana hakim perbicaraan telah menyatakan dengan ringkas, dalam keputusannya yang bukti penting (perbicaraan) sudah “diusik “.
“Maka asas kes pendakwaan sudah termusnah, menyebabkan sebarang rayuan, tidak kira berapa kali, adalah satu tindakan terakhir dan sia-sia.
“Nampaknya ia adalah satu kes penganiayaan politik terhadap Anwar dan bukan tujuan pendakwaan,” tegas beliau.
Tarik balik notis rayuan
Sementara itu, Naib Presiden KEADILAN, N. Surendran mendesak Tan Sri Abdul Ghani Patail menarik balik notis rayuan tersebut.
Ini kerana katanya, tindakan itu jelas berniat jahat dan dibuat atas arahan politik Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Najib Abdul Razak.
“Jika mereka enggan menarik balik, mereka (Umno-BN) bakal berdepan mala petaka pada Pilihan Raya Umum (PRU) akan datang kerana rakyat sudah muak dengan kezaliman Umno dan Najib terhadap Anwar,” katanya kepada Keadilandaily.com.
Beliau juga berkata rayuan itu menunjukkan konspirasi berterusan Najib terhadap Anwar menjelang PRU akan datang.
“Sudah pasti kita mengecam sekeras-kerasnya tindakan Ghani ini,” katanya lagi.
Pada 9 Januari lalu, Mahkamah Tinggi Kuala Lumpur membebaskan Anwar dari tuduhan meliwat bekas pembantunya, Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan.
Hakim Datuk Mohamad Zabidin Mohd Diah dalam penghakiman berkata beliau mendapati tidak ada bukti yang menyokong keterangan Saiful.
Keputusan itu disambut baik badan-badan perundangan di Malaysia dan luar negara, serta dialukan oleh pemimpin dan masyarakat antarabangsa.

'Appeal against Anwar's acquittal politically-motivated'
The last-minute filing by the Attorney General’s chambers to appeal against the January 9 acquittal of parliamentary Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim of the sodomy charge has been described as politically motivated.
“When the appeal was made, I thought it was more of a political decision.
"Why was the verdict involving Abdul Razak Baginda not appealed? That was a bigger case as it affected the country's reputation at the international level,” said PAS lawyer Hanipa Maidin (pic), referring to the murder trial of Mongolian Altantuya Shaariibuu involving Razak, the former aide to prime minister Najib Razak, and two others.
Razak was however acquitted in October 2008 of the murder charge without having to enter defence, while the two others had been found guilty and sentenced to death.
The appeal against the verdict today was filed at 4.30pm at the KL High Court criminal registry, following a request from sodomy accuser Saiful Bukhari Azlan.
The High Court had last week acquitted Anwar of the charge citing unreliable DNA evidences as reason.
According to Hanipa, the doubts which arose during the course of the trial should have been enough reason not to pursue the case further.
He warned that such a move could bring disrepute to the image of Attorney General Abdul Gani Patail, who he said was already perceived as a tool of Barisan Nasional.- harakahdaily
