Datuk Seri Farhash Wafa Salvador Rizal Mubarak has filed a defamation lawsuit against former Economy Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Rafizi Ramli, alleging that the latter made defamatory statements about him. The lawsuit was filed yesterday, following the release of a three-hour and 14-minute podcast titled "Dari Umno ke PKR: Zetrix – Kerajaan Bertukar, Kroni Berpindah?" on Rafizi's YouTube channel on October 16.
The podcast reportedly discussed allegations related to Farhash's business interests, political connections, and allegations of cronyism in government contract procurement. Farhash's lawyer, Datuk Seri Rajan Navaratnam, stated that the court documents are currently being served to Rafizi, and the legal action is necessary to address the malicious statements and protect Farhash's reputation.
This is the second legal action initiated by Farhash against Rafizi, who previously served as the Economy Minister. Farhash's legal team stated that they do not intend to engage in a public exchange of statements regarding the merits of the case and leave the matter to the court to decide.
