@rafiziramli: Hakim-hakim tidak berani mendengar ucapan @anwaribrahim dan keluar dari mahkamah. Shame and coward!
DSAI: Allah is my witness. I will not be silent. I will never surrender... In bowing to the political powers, you have effectively murdered the judiciary. You chose to remain on the dark side.
@scheekeong (DAP MP Bukit Mertajam): If @anwaribrahim can be subjected to such perversity, who else can be safe?

NOT SURE NOW WHETHER ALLAH/GOD CAN REALLY SAVE MALAYSIA WHILE MALAYSIAN TAXPAYERS ARE STILL FOOTING THE BILL FOR THEIR SALARIES AND PERKS.
Before sentence was passed, Anwar attacked the five-man bench which convicted him today accusing them of "bowing to their political masters and becoming partners in crime in the murder of the judiciary".
Anwar told the Bench,
"In bowing to political masters they have disgraced themselves and have become partners in crime in the murder of the judiciary," Anwar said.
CJ Arifin asked lead defence counsel Datuk Seri Gopal Sri Ram to tell Anwar to stop.
But Sri Ram told Arifin that his client had the right to address the court, to which Arifin retorted, "yes, on the appeal but not to condemn the court".
But the opposition leader continued attacking the judiciary, adding "you had the opportunity to right the wrong but you chose to remain on the dark side".
At this juncture, CJ ARIFIN AND THE REST OF THE BENCH WALKED OUT
Anwar continued to speak and shouted into the microphone:
"I will again, for the third time, walk into prison but with my head held high. I will not be silent and will fight for freedom and justice and WILL NEVER SURRENDER."
Lawyers had earlier said Anwar could even be sentenced to just one day in jail or bound over, as provided under the punishment for Section 377B of the Penal Code.
The prosecution led by Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah was appealing for a longer jail sentence, which can go up to 20 years.
