KUALA LUMPUR: Attorney-General Abdul Gani Patail has been accused of double standards over his decision not to charge newly-minted MCA president Dr Chua Soi Lek for 'sexual deviancy'.
According to Sankara Nair, Chua's alleged offence fell under Section 337B of the Penal Code, the same law under which Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim has been charged for allegedly sodomising his former aide Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan.
“Despite several police reports made on it (Chua's case), the AG refused to charge him when incontrovertible evidence is staring at us all.
“This is discrimination of the highest order and a clear testament of the AG's bias,” said the lawyer, who represents Anwar.
In a statement issued shortly after Chua clinched the MCA presidency this evening, Sankara described the AG's action as “prosecutorial dishonesty and unevenhandedness”.
Oral sex no different from anal sex
“There is explicit evidence by way of a video, of a former minister of health of the present ruling party, who has just won the presidency of his party.
“The VCD has been in the public domain for about two years. The video shows him engaging in oral sex with a woman. He is married and has grown children,” he said.
Sankara also noted that Chua had publicly admitted that he was the actor in the video and subsequently resigned as minister.
The lawyer stressed that oral sex with or without consent is no different from anal sex.
In view of this, Sankara urged the AG to drop the charge against Anwar.
