Here we go again!

Police in Malaysia say they are investigating renewed sodomy allegations against the opposition leader, Anwar Ibrahim.

A 23-year-old aide to Mr Anwar is said to have filed the complaint.

Mr Anwar has denied the claim, saying it is designed to block his political resurgence after success at the polls.

The ex-deputy PM was jailed in 1998 on sodomy and corruption charges he has said were politically motivated. The sodomy conviction was later overturned.

The BBC News Online reported it first before the local paper, The Star did.

Well, we do not know if the new allegations are true or not - but you have to admit that the timing of it is just way too convenient... for certain people!

Malaysia boleh!
