>From The Economist, 10/3: "Mr. Anwar was sacked last month as Malaysia's
deputy prime minister, and has now been charged on five counts of sodomy, and five of abusing his power while in office to block investigations of his crimes."

Except for the part where he sacks him first, and tries him after, this indictment sounds very much like the very latest in democratic innovations, no? His mentors must be proud.
