I first read about it in RockyBru’s blog. A video-clip showed lawyer, VK Lingam having a phone coversation somebody, allegedly our current Chief Justice way back in 2002. You bet that it has nothing to do with the fish head curry they had in Restoran Mamak.

Heading over to Anwar Ibrahim’s blog, I watched the clip. Although the audio was good, it was still hard to make out what they are talking about. A written transcript is available and a cursory scan shows that something fishier than fish head curry is afoot, or rather has happened.

This sort of confirms what everybody has been suspecting all along, lawyers, judges and well connected Datuks are all in cahoots.

A can of worms has been opened and the next few days will see many, many fierce verbal attacks.  The way I see it-and I hope that I’m wrong-this will be a battle between the alternative media and the print and broadcasting media over whose version of the events will become ‘truth’.

…And I can’t help but notice how well timed this release was-so close to the ‘imminent’ GE. Anwar is shrewd.
