Parliament suspension looms for Malaysia's Anwar over Israel link
Malaysia Opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim faces a six-month suspension from Parliament for linking his country's Muslim-majority government to Israel, triggering accusations Tuesday that authorities were trying to undermine him amid his sodomy trial.
Federal legislators are scheduled to vote Thursday on the suspension, which could force Anwar to miss parliamentary debates ahead of general elections that some political pundits believe will be held next year. (AP)
