No law or person can give Anwar Ibrahim the right to be in Parliament!
KABOOMMM!!!
This is what former AG Tan Sri Abu Talib Othman said. Even Dewan Rakyat Speaker and the Home Minister have no legal clout to issue order that Anwar be produced in Parliament.
So, to Rafizi Ramli who threatened the government that the Opposition would stage protests should Anwar is not allowed to carry on with his duty as the Opposition Leader, he better learn something about such procedures, or he could join his boss in Sungai Buloh.

And here is another logic:
A lawyer said the request by PKR adviser Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, who is serving a five-year jail sentence for sodomy, to attend meetings of the Dewan Rakyat, which sits for 20 days from Monday, should not be entertained.Datuk Khairul Anwar Rahmat, who is chairman of the Malaysian Volunteer Lawyers Association (SukaGuam), said allowing Anwar to attend Dewan Rakyat would be tantamount to a mockery of the judiciary because he had been convicted of a crime.“An offender who is serving a sentence should not be allowed to attend (Dewan Rakyat) sittings.“Offenders have never been allowed to do so in the history of the legislature and constitution, not only in the country but also elsewhere in the world.“I have checked on this. This will clearly be an insult,” he told Bernama.
