Mahkamah Tinggi Shah Alam memutuskan dua hantaran defenden bersifat memfitnah Azlan Abdullah.
Azlan Abdullah, a wealthy businessman, has won a defamation lawsuit against an individual on Facebook, following a judgment by the High Court in Shah Alam. The case involved two Facebook posts published by Shahruldi Mahafiz Ramli that were deemed defamatory towards Azlan, who is commonly known as Azlan Al Amin. The court found that the posts were defamatory, accusing Azlan of being a scammer in the realm of wealth management.
Azlan's attorney, Fahmi Adilah, argued that the defamation claims were made by the plaintiff, a con artist, and that Azlan was also implicated in a financial scam. The court has also instructed the defendant to pay Azlan a sum of RM30,000 in compensation for the defamation. Meanwhile, the plaintiff has been asked to submit a claim for compensation within a 30-day period.
In a statement, Azlan expressed that the judgment would help to restore his reputation after being accused of being a scammer in the wealth management industry. He said, "After enduring the consequences of being labeled as a scammer, my reputation and image have been tarnished. This victory allows me to clear my name once again."
Previously, Azlan also won a separate lawsuit against another individual related to a RM590,000 property dispute in the Besut Sessions Court, Terengganu.
