'Coffee Boy' Saiful claims Anwar took him on three overseas trips
Mr Saiful Bukhari Azlan, the former aide of opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim who claimed he was sexually assaulted by his boss, has said that, despite his so-called 'coffee boy' status, he had accompanied Datuk Seri Anwar on three overseas trips, including one to Singapore.
In a blog post, Mr Saiful also claimed to have helped arrange secret meetings in a luxury condominium unit between Mr Anwar and government politicians who wanted to defect to the opposition.
The claims are sure to rile Mr Anwar and the Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR), as they have portrayed him as a volunteer 'coffee boy' who is being manipulated by Umno leaders.
Mr Saiful, 23, is in hiding after claiming on June 28 that Mr Anwar had sodomised him.
The PKR, which is unofficially led by Mr Anwar, has dismissed Mr Saiful's charges. Some party officials have also disparaged his role in the party, saying that he was a university dropout who worked as a part-time volunteer, mostly driving Mr Anwar around and making him coffee.
Mr Saiful, in his blog mohdsaifulbukhari.blogspot.com, portrayed himself as someone who was close to his former boss.
His latest post on Friday afternoon was titled The Tasks of a Former 'Coffee Boy' to DSAI. Mr Anwar is known as DSAI to his supporters. DSAI stands for 'Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim'.
In the post, Mr Saiful said that his first duty was to help the PKR's chief of staff manage Mr Anwar's schedule.
His second duty was to 'arrange secret meetings' for Members of Parliament who wanted to cross over to the opposition. He claimed that the meetings took place in a unit at the posh Desa Damansara condominium. He named the owner of the unit as a grassroots leader of opposition Parti Islam SeMalaysia.
But it is his alleged third task that could become the biggest problem for the PKR.
Mr Saiful said that he had accompanied his former boss to Hong Kong and Bangkok in May, and to Singapore from June 16 to 18.
'It is up to you to believe or not. Or try and ask DSAI to explain himself whether this is true or not,' Mr Saiful said. 'To DSAI, I wish him good luck in his contest,' he added, a clear reference to the politician's plan to stand in a by-election in his old Penang constituency.
The blog, if it indeed originates from Mr Saiful, has had only three posts. The blog's Malay title is By God, Religion, Race and Country.
Mr Anwar has not denied that Mr Saiful had accompanied him abroad when asked about it in a July 4 interview with online newspaper Malaysiakini.
He added that his aides took turns to go with him whenever he had to give a public lecture or attend conferences abroad.
Mr Saiful's latest post is expected to prompt Mr Anwar's political foes to fire fresh salvos at him. And they are likely to be along the lines of a blog post two weeks ago by Mr Khairy Jamaluddin, Umno Youth's deputy chief.
In a tart response to Mr Anwar's admission that Mr Saiful had indeed gone with him abroad, Mr Khairy asked: 'Now, why in the world would you take your volunteer coffee boy on an overseas visit?
'If he was a nobody, just as Anwar and his lackeys painted him out to be, why would he be part of a coveted overseas entourage?'
He concluded: 'The only explanation I can think of is that his coffee must be damn bloody good.'
So anyone wanted to be a coffee boy? You just need to make damn good coffee.
