Hearing of Guan Eng’s appeal in defamation suit against Perkasa set for Sept 22

Thursday, 09 Apr 2020 03:11 PM MYT

PUTRAJAYA, April 9 — The Federal Court has fixed Sept 22 to hear an appeal by former Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng in connection with his defamation lawsuit against Perkasa and two others. The question of law consented by all parties was pertaining to Lim's locus standi to maintain the lawsuit in his official capacity.

In 2012, Lim sued Perkasa, Ibrahim, Ruslan, The New Straits Times Press Bhd and Utusan Melayu Sdn Bhd over a statement which was published by Ruslan on Perkasa's website on Oct 1, 2011 which implied he was endangering national security by exposing the country's secrets to Singapore.
