Judge Datuk Arifin Jaka issued a subpoena on Alor Gajah Syariah Court registrar for the purpose after deciding that Azizan, the sixth witness in Anwar's sodomy case, need not be recalled to testify concerning his case in the Syariah Court. Azizan and Norhayati Saad, 22, who Azizan later married, were both sentenced to three months jail after pleading guilty to the two charges committed on Sept 16 and the couple were also fined a total of RM13,300. Anwar's defence counsels, Christopher Fernando and Karpal Singh yesterday applied to recall Azizan on grounds that there was new evidence in the sodomy case after Azizan was arrested and then convicted by the Syariah Court. They said Azizan needed to be recalled to allow the defence to challenge his credibility. Arifin today ruled that Azizan need not be recalled in order to have his credibility challenged and the defence instead only needed to obtain the proceedings record of Azizan's case from the Syariah Court. Azizan, 39, is the main witness in the sodomy case against Anwar, a former deputy prime minister, who is jointly charged with his adopted brother Sukma Darmawan Sasmitaat Madja. Anwar, 52, and Sukma, 38, are charged with sodomising Azizan, a former driver to Anwar's wife at Tivolli Villa, Bangsar, here on a night at 7.45pm between January and March 1993. Sukma, a businessman, is also charged with abetting Anwar to sodomise Azizan at the same place and time. Hearing then continued with Sukma's lawyer, Jagjeet Singh Deo resuming his examination. -- BERNAMA ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ( Melanggan ?
