Court of Appeal upholds order for Awie to pay RM80,000 damages to ex-wife


PUTRAJAYA: Popular rock singer Datuk Awie will have to pay RM80,000 in damages to his ex-wife Rozana Misbun, after he failed in his appeal in relation to a lawsuit she filed over an assault seven years ago.

In a unanimous decision, a three-member Court of Appeal panel chaired by Justice Nor Bee Ariffin dismissed the appeal filed by Awie, whose real name is Ahmad Azhar Othman, on grounds that there was no merit in the appeal.
