KUALA LUMPUR: The Court of Appeal has upheld a ruling that Kepong MP Lim Lip Eng was liable in a defamation suit filed by MonSpace (M) Sdn Bhd and its founder Datuk Seri Jessy Lai, but reduced the amount of damages from RM2mil to RM75,000.
A three-judge panel, chaired by Justice Ahmad Zaidi Ibrahim, found the initial RM2mil imposed by the Kuala Lumpur High Court to be “excessive”.
