Malaysiakini goldmine appeal case postponed to Dec 1

The Federal Court has postponed to Dec 1 the hearing of Malaysiakini’s appeal to quash a lower court ruling that the online news portal’s reports on the Raub Australian Gold Mining (RAGM) company were defamatory.

A five-person bench chaired by Federal Court judge Vernon Ong Lam Kiat put off the hearing during open court proceedings this morning.
