Supporters of Mohd Saiful Bukhari came out in force during the appeal hearing at the Federal Court last October. Saiful still feels, however, that most Malaysians have forgotten he is the 'victim' in the sodomy case against Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. – The Malaysian Insider pic, February 8, 2015.With two days to go before the final verdict on Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim's Sodomy II trial is known, Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan expressed dismay over public treatment of him as the “victim" of sexual assault.The 30-year-old former political aide to Anwar said the political implications of the case had often drowned his cry for justice.“There is so little just treatment and concern about me, so much so that I am seen as irrelevant although I am the victim, while Anwar is the accused.“In all frankness, I'd like to express how very sad and disappointed I am. How I've been treated and any concern towards me as the victim is often overlooked and even regarded as unimportant or irrelevant," he wrote in a blog post today.Saiful said he was disappointed with the way politicians from both the ruling Barisan Nasional and Pakatan Rakyat, political analysts and public were more concerned about the effect the case would have on the country and its political landscape.“Whatever it is, I am well aware. Who am I?“I am just a little person of no importance. Anwar, on the other hand, is a VVIP politician of great importance," he lamented in his post.Saiful had accused Anwar of sodomising him in 2008 but the High Court acquitted the Permatang Pauh MP in 2012.The Court of Appeal then overturned the decision last year and Anwar has appealed against his conviction in the Federal Court and the court is set to announce its verdict on Tuesday.However, despite his lament, Saiful said he was prepared to accept the Federal Court’s verdict even if it was favourable to Anwar.Saiful took a swipe at Pakatan Rakyat supporters and those who wanted a clean and independent judiciary.“I find it odd and repulsive when Anwar and his supporters want the government and prime minister to intervene to free Anwar. Isn’t that hypocrisy of the highest order?" Saiful wrote. – February 8, 2015.
