A scene in the infamous video.
Kuala Lumpur: The video first surfaced when a private screening was held at Carcosa Seri Negara hotel on March 21. Some parties hinted on the person in the 1-minute-47-second clip is a“prominent Malay opposition leader”. Following the rumours, Anwar denied being the man featured in the video and accused BN of creating the video with the motive of further humiliating and defaming him.

Later, a snippet of the video was discovered to have been posted online on video streaming site, YouTube, and is being posted on pro-Umno blogs. It was later deleted for violating YouTube’s policy on nudity or sexual content.

“It is clear that the body and physique of the actor is different than the body and physique of Anwar.” She told reporters saying the man in the video does not resemble her husband after watching the video with her family.
According to a poll by Malaysian Insider found out that 51 per cent of those surveyed did not believe Anwar was the man in the video and with 39 per cent saying the video was contrived by Barisan National.
Similarly, current MCA president Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek was forced to resign as health minister after admitting to being the man in a sex tape that caused a chaos in 2007.
