Saiful thankful Anwar finally brought to justice
Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan is thankful to Allah that Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim will finally be brought to face justice.
Saiful also hopes that all Malaysians will pray that the legal process is carried out smoothly so the truth can be proven in a just manner,??? he said yesterday.
I am perplexed and puzzled! Anwar is charged for consensual sex and Saiful thank Allah that his consensual partner in the sexual act had now being charged in the court. If it is consensual, does it mean that Allah is granting Saiful justice? I am perplexed and confused!
Dear Malaysian, Saiful ask all of you to pray that the legal process is carried out smoothly so that the truth can be proven in a just manner. I don’t really understand what he means; but I presumed that if two parties had agreed to have anal sex, I can’t configure what kind of justice is Just and Fair and can be carried out smoothly in order to convict one party to an unlawful act; it must mean that both parties who had consented to an unlawful act are both guilty of the same crime.
Could a prostitute (who is above 18 years of age) who accepted and agreed to have sex with a customer and then received payment for the service provided later make a police report and claim that the customer had rape and paid her for the sexual act for which she had earlier agreed to perform? Prostitution is a unlawful act; but based on the above analogy, the customer can be charged for rape although it is unclear whether the police would have acted saifully.
Prime Minister Abdullah said that the police were duty bound to charge Anwar because they had to protect the rights of Anwar’s accuser Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan.
“Don’t forget that there is another person, Saiful. You seem to forget Saiful and you think Anwar is more important. This is the issue of the law,??? he said.
On whether Saiful would also be charged if he was a willing partner, Pak Lah said:
“You better read your law. If there is rape the accused will have to face action. This is a matter for the law. But I am not lawyer and I won’t get involved. We’ll see what happens in court.???

Dear PM, I read law and I understand law. But the charge is consensual sex, not rape, sir?
Dear PM, I know you are not a lawyer, but you have many advisers who would have briefed you on the aspects of the law. In consensual sex, both party consent to have the sexual acts and both agreed to have the fun.
I have read your statement earlier in which you said Saiful must be given justice based on the rule of law.
This is what you said, dear PM,and it was published on 2 Aug 2008 NST Prime News page 8:
“We must remember that the complainant (Mohd Saiful) has lodged a report and what he is looking for is justice. We must not forget him. We must carry out our responsibility so that Mohd Saiful’s claims are brought to court for a decision to be made in the name of justice. In this country, everyone is entitled to justice based on the rule of law.”
But sir PM, Saiful is the complainant and he is entitled to justice based on the rule of law. But that is for those who were raped, sodomised without consent or by unlawful acts. Anwar is charged for consensual sex which means that the police and the attorney-general or solicitor-general must have concluded that both Anwar and Saiful had agreed to the sexual act albeit using the backside. So how is justice done when one party who had consented to do an act is accusing the other party of agreeing to act? I am perplexed and I am confused with our jurisprudence and the rule of law, dear PM.
