Muhyiddin said it was up to the public to decide whether to accept the findings of experts on the sex video or otherwise.
It was reported yesterday that US experts from Dartmouth College had confirmed that the sex video was authentic and there was a 99.99% possibility the man in the video was the Opposition Leader.
In Jitra, Anwar said he was attacked in the sex video case without being given the chance to defend himself.
“This is a criminal case where the three individuals were sentenced for a crime but both the prosecution and the defence counsel joined forces to attack me,” he claimed after opening the Kubang Pasu PKR office in Napoh near here yesterday.
Several Independent MPs had also called on Anwar to step down to preserve Parliament's sanctity in light of the testimonies by the foreign experts.
KUALA
LUMPUR: The Bar Council should not question the judge's decision to
screen the sex video implicating Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim in court.
Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin said he was surprised by the Bar Council's reaction towards the judge's decision.
“I don't know why they are so interested. There seems to be a political motive behind it,” he told a press conference at the government-linked companies (GLC) open day here yesterday.
An online portal had quoted Bar Council president Lim Chee Wee as describing the magistrate court's decision to screen the video in court as “shocking” and “extraordinary” as those accused of screening the video had already pleaded guilty to the crime.
