【本刊陈慧思撰述】前副首相、人民公正党实权领袖安华依布拉欣（Anwar Ibrahim）今日召开记者会，放映一节长达8分钟26秒的录像，揭露著名律师维卡纳伽林甘（VK Lingam）曾在2002年一通电话对谈中表明，将说服企业大亨陈志远和现任旅游部长登姑阿南（Tengku Adnan bin Tengku Mansor）游说当时的首相马哈迪擢升阿末法鲁斯（Ahmad Fairuz Sheikh Abdul Halim）出任上诉庭主席（PCA）。

人民公正党副主席西华拉萨（Sivarasa Rasiah，左图右）确认，影像中讲电话的人正是林甘，而林甘谈话内容的脉络反映出，电话另一端乃当时仍是马来亚大法官的现任联邦法院首席大法官阿末法鲁斯。

林甘也向电话那头说：“啊，我也会说服丹斯里提醒首相，以颁（你）一个丹斯里衔头，这将提高你（的声誉／地位），你知道的。”在短片中，林甘偶尔以“丹斯里”称呼陈志远（Tan Sri Vincent Tan）。

西华拉萨透露，这段影像摄录于2002年，摄录地点是林甘位于雪兰莪州格拉娜再也的住家。他指出，完整的录影长达14分钟16秒，唯目前人民公正党只公布其中8分钟26秒的录影片段。安华和西华都拒绝透露揭秘者的身份。

2002 年影像摄录时，身为马来亚大法官的阿末法鲁斯是司法界第三号人物。他1967年4月4日进入我国司法界，成为实习法律官员，曾出任地庭主席、州法律顾问和首相署法律顾问团（Advisory Board, Prime Minister's Department）主席。1988年，他被委为马来亚高庭司法专员，随后成为高庭法官。

1995年12月1日，阿末法鲁斯晋升上诉庭法官，2000年9月1日则升任联邦法院法官。2003年，阿末顺利升任联邦法院首席大法官，成为我国司法界第一号人物。

请陈志远和登姑疏通

2002年，当时的联邦法院首席大法官赛丁阿都拉（Mohd Dzaiddin Abdullah，右图）即将在2003年卸任，影像摄录时正处于内定升迁人选的阶段；影像透射出当时司法界和政界的两大派系斗争，也曝露了司法界跃升制度的腐蚀现象。

林甘的谈话显露，阿末法鲁斯是前任联邦法院首席大法官尤索夫晋（Eusoffe Chin）属意升任上诉庭主席的人选，可是当时在任的联邦法院大法官赛丁阿都拉显然另有安排；为了把阿末法鲁斯托上司法界第二高位，林甘有意说服陈志远和登姑阿南在首相马哈迪面前疏通。

影像一开始即显示，林甘对着电话说：“首席大法官说他是最高元首的亲戚，因此他要就任到68岁，因此，登姑阿南，我告诉登姑阿南，昨天我跟他有个会议。他说，首相已经非常生气他，他说，没有问题，他要让你成为呃……确立你为上诉庭主席，很努力很努力，以便让丹斯里莫达（Tan Sri Mokhtar）成为马来亚大法官。”

双方致函首相建议擢升人选

向来被视为陈志远“御用律师”的林甘继说：“啊，我们保密，我很努力地做了。有一封信，根据登姑阿南的说法，我明天将去见他。有一封信已送到首席大法官手中，我的意思是丹斯里赛丁，拿督贺礼利亚（Datuk Heliliah）、拿督蓝立（Datuk Ramli）、拿督蓝立和拿督马若（Datuk Ma’roop）将被擢升为法官，而他拒绝（跃升）安德鲁崔（Dr Andrew Chui）和那个再努丁依斯迈（Zainuddin Ismail）啦，因为再努丁依斯迈非议你的委任和丹斯里莫达的委任。”

接着，他说：“你也一样，你似乎已写了一封信，以便剩下的那五个被确立为法官。正如之前我们记录下的，我跟敦尤索夫晋讨论了，也把同样的讯息传达给了首相。”

有两名资深法官的名字叫“莫达”，一是曾任上诉庭法官的莫达西丁（Mokhtar Sidin），另一名则是从总检察长职务退休三个星期后，便被任命为联邦法院法官的莫达阿都拉（Mokhtar Abdullah）。

1996年，陈志远（左图）透过代表律师林甘，针对杂志和报章就内幕重重的阿逸摩立（Ayer Molek）案子所作的报道，起诉三名新闻从业员和一名律师诽谤，总索偿额为马币一亿九千万元。

1999 年，遭起诉的《亚洲华尔街日报》通讯员（Raphael Pura）一方在对垒Insas有限公司的高庭审讯中揭露，1994年12月莫达西丁在陈志远起诉著名新闻工作者比莱（M.G.G. Pillai）的案件中所撰写的判词，一部分是出自陈志远代表律师林甘的手笔，甚至是在林甘的律师楼打字、由林甘修改、定稿，过后才交到法官手中。在此案中，莫达西丁判陈志远胜诉，比莱需赔偿陈志远马币一千万元名誉损失。

陈志远是国内有名的华裔企业大亨，也是国内20大富商之一；成功集团（Berjaya Group）为其商业王国的旗舰集团，业务横跨博采、产业以及媒体业。陈志远持股的上市公司包括成功多多（Berjaya Toto）、科士威（Cosway）、马特力国际（Matrix）以及英丹（Intan）等。

首相跟阿南陈志远商议

另外，林甘（右图左二）被揭露，在1994年12月22日至30日之间，与当时的联邦法院首席大法官尤索夫晋（右图左一）及其家庭成员在纽西兰度假，与尤索夫晋关系匪浅。【点击：陈志远与“巨额诽谤诉讼”】

林甘告诉电话中人，他已叫登姑阿南告知首相（马哈迪），首相将致电他（电话中人）以安排一个会面。他还说道：“如果丹斯里Vincent和登姑阿南要私下见你，他们会这么做。我会打电话给你，我们将作一个私人安排，在一个非常不寻常的地方。”

从通话录像看来，陈志远、尤索夫晋、登姑阿南、阿末法鲁斯和林甘一方没有十分的把握首相会站在他们一边，林甘告诉对讲人，陈志远曾在他面前致电登姑阿南，后者说：“我不是马来西亚首相啦，你知道，如果那个老人不要听我讲，就死啦。”

林甘在对话中提醒对讲人，在首相面前“吹哨”，以免首相“被另一方说动”。他还说：“但是现在首相非常警觉，因为每一次他收到赛丁的信，他会致电阿南，他说，跟Vincent讨论，来，一起讨论。”

最后，他安抚对讲人：“不，别担心，我知道你为了敦尤索夫晋吃了多少苦。敦也说，拿督阿末法鲁斯110%忠诚。为了首相，也为了国家，我们要确保我们的朋友在那里。”

林甘也在影像和录音记录中提及安华依布拉欣和民主行动党前国会议员黄朱强的名字。安华依布拉欣质疑，政商和法律界人士或幕后操纵两人官司的审讯。【点击：对话提到安华黄朱强名字 安华疑有人妨碍司法公正】




通话文字记录

以下是影片的通话文字记录（人民公正党提供）：

The CJ said he is relative to now Agong, so he wants to stay on to 68, so, Tengku Adnan, I told Tengku Adnan, yesterday I had a meeting with him.

He said PM is already very angry with him, he said no problem he is going to make you acting err.. confirm your position as PCA, working very hard then working very hard to get Tan Sri Mokhtar as CJM.

Ah, we just keep it confidential. I am working very hard on it. Then there is a letter, according to Tengku, I am going to see him tomorrow, there is a letter sent to CJ, I mean Tan Sri Dzaiddin, that Datuk Heliliah, Datuk Ramli, Datuk Ramli and Datuk Ma’roop be made judges, and he rejected Dr Andrew Chui and apa itu Zainuddin Ismail lah. Because Zainuddin Ismail condemned your appointment and Tan Sri Mokhtar’s appointment.

And then you also, you seems to wrote a letter for the remaining five be confirmed as judges. As per our memo I discuss with Tun Eusoff Chin and we sent the same memo to PM.

I just want to get a copy letter that that has been done.

And then Tan Sri Dzaiddin said he is going to recommend six people for the court of appeal, but until today the letter hasn’t come to PM. He never discuss, but neither he has sent the letter to PM. Yes he has not sent. I know it is under the constitution for judges all that is your job Datuk to send, but we don’t want to make it an issue now.

Ah. Ok Actually I told tengku adnan to inform PM, PM to call you for a meeting. I organize it so that Tengku Adnan will call you directly. And then I got your number, I will tell him to call you directly to for you to meet PM lah. So should be ok, then ar.. correct correct, it is very important that the key players must be there.

Correct x3. correct x2. You know that the same problem that Tun Eusoff Chin has. He tried to do all this and yet he has run out of soldiers. He couldn’t do it because many are from the other camp. Last time was unfortunate because Tun Daim was doing everything sabotaging, otherwise how are things with you - everything is ok?. No, don’t worry. You know sometimes Tan Sri Vincent that half the time they are talking about judiciary rather than doing the work. But if I don’t do this part my work will be useless.

Ha ha ha. Ah yes.Correct x5, right x3 correct. Ah right susah. You see he has now up for six court of appeal judges, so that he can put his men before he retires.

Correct x3, ah and then ah, correct. But never-mind, I will do this, I will get Tengku Adnan to arrange for PM to call you and Tan Sri Vincent Tan for PM to call you. And you know why, actually, I am very grateful with Tan Sri Vincent Tan you know why, I brainwash you so much even I quarrel with him. One day I went to Vincent Tan house, I fire him at the night in his house. I said very hell if you don’t do this who will do it?

All these people Tun Eusoff Chin, Datuk Ahmad Fairuz, Tan Sri Zainon all fought for that. Then he called Tengku Adnan. Tengku Adnan he said, saya bukan Perdana Menteri Malaysia lah, you know. If the old man doesn’t want to listen to me, go to hell.

He quarreled with me. I said nevermind, nevermind, you talk to PM again tomorrow morning to put Datuk Ahmad Fairuz to CJM. So next day morning he went and he called me back 9.30 that he said PM has already agreed. So I said nevermind, we hope for the best. So I said no harm trying, the worst that it can happen is that you lose. Being the old man, he is 76 years old, he gets whispers everywhere, and then you don’t whisper, he get taken away by the other side. But, now PM is very alert because every time he gets letters from Tan Sri Zaidin, he called Tengku Adnan, he said discuss with Vincent, come and discuss.

Yes yes, ya. Correct x2, ya, but you see although I know PM, I am a lawyer in practice my views are.. I go through them, I go through them lah. Ah x4.

And then Zaidin will call them telling that you went saw PM and you make a big issue out of it. Oh ya, I think so, I think so.

Ok, fine x4 ok x4

Ah x2 correct x2. Now I heard Raja Aziz, Raja Aziz huh, spoke to my lawyer Thayalan, and another lawyer Ailan, in the high court, they have a case each other. So, Thayalan and Ailan asked Raja Aziz, how is Tan Sri Wan Adnan?

He said he is on his way down. But you know what is the shocking thing he said? Datuk Fairuz became CJM. He overruled everybody, in three months time, he is going be made VCA, and 6 months time he is going to be CJ. He said he cant think he shocked. He told us.

Ha, it seems that they are going to organize a campaign to run you down. But you just keep quite don’t say anything. Even the press asked, you said I leave it to God, that’s all. Don’t say. I really like your message. You said you work very hard, what can I do? I leave it to God.

That’s the best answer datuk that you can ever be.

Ah… I will also get Tan Sri to remind PM to put a Tan Sri ship this year lah. This will elevate you, you know.

Oh yes x4. ha. XX got so fast, Tan Sri Chong waited for whole year to get Tan Sri Ship.

Ah.. My god that’s why, ah. Correct x4, ya x4 right x3 correct x2

Don’t worry, we organize this. If Tan Sri Vincent and Tengku Adnan want to meet you privately, they will, I will call you. We organize in a private arrangement, in a very unusual place.

No don’t worry, Datuk, I know how much you suffer for Tun Eusoff Chin. And Tun said Datuk Ahmad Fairuz 110% loyalty. We want to make sure our friends are there for the sake of the PM and the sake of the country.

Not for our own interest, not for our own interest. We want to make sure the country come first. Well, you suffered so well, so much you have done. For the election, Wee Choo Keong, everything. How much, no body would have done all these.

Yes, you know. Good lah. Don’t worry. I am constantly working on this.

Ya ya, don’t worry x2. We work hard on this. And Datuk, and then if Tan Sri Vincent and Tengku Adnan want to see you, I will organize it in such a confidential place.

Ok Datuk very best. God bless you and your family.

Ok. Thank you thank you. Bye.
