KUALA LUMPUR (Nov 16, 2009): The High Court here today ordered Malaysian Indian United Party (MIUP) president Datuk S. Nallakarupan to furnish details on his allegation that Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim had received RM60 million from him and also from gaming company, Magnum Corporation Bhd.

Judge Datin Zabariah Yusof made the decision after rejecting Nallakaruppan's appeal to overturn an order by the High Court's assistant registrar on Aug 28 granting Anwar's application to get the details.

Zabariah, who made the decision in chambers, ordered Nallakarupan to furnish the details as sought by Anwar, that is who gave the monies, when and where they were given, within 14 days from today.

Bernama was told of this development in the case by counsel S.N.Nair and Wan Anuar Wan Syahadat, who are acting for Anwar.

Nallakarupan, who is represented by counsel S.Murali, was sued by Anwar, who is also Opposition leader and Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) advisor, over an article titled "Anwar terima RM60 juta" (Anwar received RM60 million) that was published in the Mingguan Malaysia and Sinar Harian vernacular dailies in August 2008.

Anwar claimed that Nallakarupan had made a false allegation about him by alleging that he received such amounts of money in the article.

Nallakarupan in his statement of defence had claimed that Anwar had indeed received such amounts from him and also from Magnum Corporation. -- Bernama
