KOTA BARU, MALAYSIA - The young man who accused PKR de facto leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim of sodomising him had attended an interview with the Kelantan-based Asia Pacific Flight Training School.

A school spokesman confirmed that the interview took place three months ago and his application to be a trainee pilot was currently under study.

'The man attended the interview with 82 other applicants,' he said.

The spokesman for the flying school said during the interview, Mohd Saiful did not say that he was Anwar's aide or that he was a student with an institution of higher learning.

The flying school operates out of the Sultan Ismail Petra airport in Pengkalan Chepa here.
