Court orders Mynic to reveal Focus Malaysia domain owner to KJ
Justice Arziah Apandi says disclosure is needed to identify those responsible for an allegedly defamatory article.
Former Malaysian minister Khairy Jamaluddin has been granted a High Court order compelling Mynic Bhd, the .my domain registry, to disclose the identity of the owner of focusmalaysia.my. The domain's registration details, previously obscured, are now required to identify the responsible party behind a defamatory article published on March 10.
Justice Arziah Apandi ruled that Khairy must unmask the person or entity to pursue defamation proceedings. Mynic, without contesting most of the request, will provide the registrant's name, identification, address, email, phone number, and administrative contact details. The court also demands the domain's registration history, expiry date, registrar, and related documents. Mynic has 21 days to comply, with costs borne by both parties.
