A Mullah from PAS Perak ordered to pay RM250,000 to Guan Eng in defamation suit over headscarf fiasco - The best news ever after all the depressing shit

Razman Zakaria

The Malay Mail : KUALA LUMPUR, March 18 — The High Court has ordered Perak PAS chief Razman Zakaria to pay RM250,000 in damages to DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng, and to issue a public apology over a Facebook posting targeted at Lim, over a headscarf ban fiasco involving hotel staff.

On January 22, 2018, national news agency Bernama reported that the Bagan MP Lim had initiated legal action against the Perak state executive councillor for uploading a fake image on the latter’s social media alongside a statement that was defamatory, false and malicious against Lim on November 18, 2017.

Razman had at that time reported to have stated that Lim appeared to be supporting the ban on the donning of headscarves, which he allegedly defended as being the right of hotel operators, and that Penang fully backed the move.

In his statement of claim, Bernama reported Lim as saying that the words used in Razman’s post were from an unauthentic source and aimed at tarnishing his name, reputation and portraying him as a leader who had no respect for Islam and Malay culture.
