Anwar's Sodomy Trial Starts

Mahathir's vendetta did not stop with Anwar's conviction of technical corruption

Apparently not satisfied with Anwar's conviction and jail sentence which will put him out of the political picture for the rest of Mahathir's career, a vindictive and paranoid Mahathir dragged Anwar to court again on flimsy charges of sodomy. There is only the word of one unreliable witness against him, yet he has no hope for justice. Is this for Mahathir's own personal satisfaction or has he deluded himself that his kangaroo court still hold credibility with the public?
