No action taken against Hannah Yeoh's book, says ex-Iksim officer


KUALA LUMPUR: A former senior officer of the Media Research Centre at the Malaysian Islamic Strategic Research Institute (Iksim) told the High Court here on Thursday (Feb 6) that neither the Home Minister nor the Inspector-General of Police had taken any action against the book ‘Becoming Hannah: A Personal Journey’.

Harizal Hassan, 45, said this when cross-examined by lawyer Sangeet Kaur Deo, representing Hannah Yeoh, during the defamation suit filed by the Youth and Sports Minister against Universiti Utara Malaysia lecturer Dr Kamarul Zaman Yusoff. The suit relates to two Facebook posts about the book made in May 2017.
