  "account": "Azlan Abdullah, a wealthy businessman, has emerged victorious in a defamation lawsuit against an individual after the High Court in Shah Alam ruled that two Facebook posts by the defendant were defamatory. Judge Nor Hayati Mat found that two messages sent by Shahruldi Mahafiz Ramli, which were the subject of the lawsuit, were defamatory towards Azlan, also known as Azlan Al Amin. Azlan's lawyer, Fahmi Adilah, argued that the main aim of the defamation was to accuse Azlan of being a fraudster and involved in a property-related fraud case. The court also instructed that the plaintiff should submit an estimate of compensation within 30 days, it was noted. The court further instructed Shahruldi to pay a sum of RM30,000 to Azlan. Shahruldi was represented by Nur Farah Aida Mahathir and Amal Mat Isa. In a statement, Azlan said that the verdict would help restore his reputation after being accused of being a scammer. He had endured the effects of the defamation for so long, his reputation and image had been tarnished. This victory, he said, was enough to clear my tarnished reputation.",
