Dato' Seri Anwar bin Ibrahim (born
August 10,
1947) is a former deputy prime minister and finance minister of
Malaysia. Early in his career, he became a protege of the former
prime minister of Malaysia,
Mahathir Mohamad, but subsequently emerged as the most prominent critic of Mathathir's administration. In 1999, he was sentenced in a highly controversial trial to six years in prison for
corruption and in 2000 to another nine years in prison for
sodomy. However, in 2004, an
appeals court reversed the second conviction and he was released.
