KUALA LUMPUR: The prosecution in Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahims sodomy trial oppressed the defence during their attempts to prove the alibi of the two accused, a counsel told the Court of Appeal yesterday.
Gorbind Singh Deo, counsel for Anwars adopted brother and co-appellant Sukma Darmawan Sasmitaat Madja, said the defence team were placed under enormous pressure to produce a 90-day alibi for both appellants after the prosecution amended the charge a second time during the trial.
