If there really was a plot, the lawyer adds, he wouldn't be right at the forefront of the case.
Lawyer Haniff Khatri Abdulla has ridiculed conspiracy talk that places him as the link between his client Yusoff Rawther and Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad, whom he has also represented.
He said such situations, such as one involving a conflict of interest or professional embarrassment due to a direct link to the subject matter, did not arise in Yusoff's case. Haniff added that police have opened an investigation paper under Section 354 of the Penal Code for assault or use of criminal force on a person with the intent to outrage modesty.
Also on Dec 4, the day before the PKR annual national delegates' congress, Yusoff held a press conference claiming he was the victim of indecent exposure, molest, and a lewd proposal from Anwar.
