epa04466599 Supporters of Malaysian opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim are reflected in a pool of water, as they show their support outside the Palace of Justice in Putrajaya, Malaysia, 28 October 2014. Malaysia's Federal Court will hear opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim's appeal against the Court of Appeals decision on 28 and 29 October, which convicted him on charges of sodomizing his former male personal aide, Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan on 26 June 2008. Ibrahim on 07 March 2014 was found guilty of sodomizing his former aide by the Court of Appeal, reversing an acquittal by a lower court two years ago. Sodomy carries a penalty of up to 20 years imprisonment and caning in Malaysia. The case stemmed from the accusation by Saiful Bukhari Azlan that Anwar sodomized him in an upscale condominium in the outskirts of Kuala Lumpur in 2008. EPA/STR
