Malaysian leader Anwar Ibrahim found guilty in sodomy trial

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia's highest court found opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim guilty on charges of sodomy on Tuesday in a case that his supporters claim was politically motivated.

The federal court's judgement upholds a ruling by the Court of Appeal in March last year, which found the 67-year-old guilty of sodomizing a former political aide.


He is expected to be sentenced later on Tuesday.


Sodomy is illegal in Muslim-majority Malaysia where the offence carries a jail term of up to 20 years.
