The Langkawi MP said the AGC should allow the alleged defamed parties to settle their dispute through civil action. theSun thesundaily criminaldefamation TheEdge AGC

has urged the Attorney-General’s Chambers to drop the criminal defamation charges made against a former chief editor of The Edge over articles published in the business weekly.

“I am very disturbed with the criminal defamation charges initiated against The Edge’s editor emeritus Encik Azam Aris over two articles published by the publication regarding penny stocks and their manipulation in the Malaysian stock exchange. “The readiness of the public prosecutor’s office to initiate criminal charges against the editor when the publication had alleged that a crime had been committed is quite baffling. By any logic, the investigation should be directed at the people alleged to have committed the crime,” he said in a statement today.
