KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): The High Court struck out a defamation lawsuit by former deputy women, family and community development minister Hannah Yeoh against former Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Musa Hassan on technical reasons on Monday (May 3).

The lawsuit was over the remarks Musa, as the defendant, made during a speech at a forum held Universiti Teknologi Mara on Jan 30, 2020.

"The lawsuit was struck out with no order as to costs and with the plaintiff given the liberty to refile the defamation lawsuit, ” he said after the case management held via online before Judge Rozana. "The defendant's lawyer in charge had some personal emergency the last few days, which made it even more difficult for consent to be obtained. Unfortunately, the judge did not accept such an explanation and decided the way it did.

He later told the media that the suit had been filed again today and currently waiting for the court to fix a new case management date.
