Jamal Yunos fails to overturn High Court ruling in Teresa Kok defamation suit


PUTRAJAYA: Umno Sungai Besar Division chief Datuk Seri Jamal Md Yunos, failed in his appeal to set aside the High Court's decision ordering him to pay RM300,000 in damages to Seputeh MP Teresa Kok Suh Sim, for defamation regarding Yayasan Warisan Anak Selangor (Yawas) funds.

A three-judge panel of the Court of Appeal led by Judge Datuk Supang Lian, alongside Datuk Azman Abdullah and Datuk Wong Kian Kheong, dismissed Jamal's appeal after concluding that it lacked merit.
