Parlimen Jerman: Fitnah II cubaan Najib singkir lawan politik
KUALA LUMPUR: Sekumpulan Ahli Parlimen Jerman menyifatkan perbicaraan Fitnah II yang sedang berlangsung sebagai satu cubaan BN untuk menyingkirkan Ketua Pembangkang, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
Menyifatkannya sebagai “proses menyingkirkan seteru politik”, kumpulan itu yang datang daripada Asean Parliamentary Group untuk Parlimen Jerman berkata perbicaraan Fitnah II bertujuan merencatkan momentum reformasi Pakatan Rakyat dalam pilihan raya umum.
“Kami memerhati dengan teliti perbicaraan Ketua Pembangkang, Anwar Ibrahim yang akan selesai dalam bulan Disember.
“Sewaktu lawatan kami ke Malaysia pada awal 2011, keraguan kami terbukti benar yang perbicaraan itu mungkin merupakan proses menyingkirkan seteru politik,” kata Dr Thomas Gambke, ketua Asean Parliamnetary Group itu dalam kenyataannya.
Justeru, mereka menuntut Najib dan pentadbirannya berlaku adil kepada Anwar di samping tidak memanipulasi proses pilihan raya untuk terus berpaut pada tampuk kuasa.
“Kami merayu kepada kerajaan Malaysia untuk menghormati matlamat reformasi demokratik sistem pilihan raya, yang diketuai Anwar Ibrahim.
“Langkah untuk mencegah penipuan pilihan raya perlu diperkenalkan bersama akses lebih meluas untuk media buat parti pembangkang yang kini mentadbir lima negeri di Malaysia.
“Perbicaraan bersifat politik terhadap Anwar akan hanya merosakkan imej antarabangsa Malaysia,” kata mereka dalam kenyataan media.
Kenyataan itu dilihat sebagai satu tamparan hebat kepada Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Najib Razak yang baru sahaja selesai menghadiri Sidang Kemuncak ASEAN di Bali semalam.
Asean Parliamentary Group (Brunei, Indonesia, Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam) itu diketuai Dr Thomas Gambke (Alliance 90/The Greens), dan Timbalan Pengerusinya adalah Dr Michael Fuchs (CDU / CSU), Holger Ortel (SPD), Dr. hc Jürgen Koppelin (FDP) dan Caren Lay (the Left.)

Statement of the ASEAN Parliamentary Group on the trial of the Malaysian opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim
Chair of the ASEAN Parliamentary Group Dr. Thomas Gambke, within the framework of the “MPs protect MPs” program in sponsorship of Malaysian opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim, says on behalf of the Board:“We are carefully observing the trial of opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim which is set to resume on November 23 and due for completion in December. During a visit to Malaysia at the start of 2011, our suspicions were confirmed that the trial may well be a process of eliminating political opponents.
The team of lawyers defending Anwar Ibrahim were gravely disadvantaged during the entire two years of the drawn-out trial. We believe that the timing of the impending conviction of Anwar Ibrahim on sodomy charges has been planned to coincide with the Parliamentary elections due in spring 2012. If convicted, the opposition leader would lose his parliamentary seat thus weakening the entire opposition movement.
We appeal to the Malaysian government to respect and regard seriously the goals of the movement for democratic reform of the electoral system, whose leading figure is Anwar Ibrahim. Measures to prevent electoral fraud should be introduced together with greater access to the public media for the opposition parties which to date are in control of five of the thirteen States of Malaysia. A politically motivated trial of Anwar Ibrahim would only damage the international image of Malaysia.”
