Anwar Ibrahim was the Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia from 1993 to 1998. He was supposed to succeed former Prime Minister Mahathir.

But in 1998, Mahathir dismissed Anwar from the post of Deputy Prime Minister after he was found guilty of corruption and homosexuality. The country's court also banned him from politics.

In 2008, Anwar was acquitted by appealing to the high court. He also regained the right to do politics. It was proved on appeal that the charges brought against him were politically motivated.
