Court denies Jamal stay of execution over RM300k judgment

The Kuala Lumpur High Court today dismissed Sungai Besar division Umno chief Jamal Md Yunos’ application to stay the execution for a judgment in a defamation case against him.

Last year, he had been ordered to pay RM300,000 in damages to former primary industries minister Teresa Kok over claims he made that she had misused Yayasan Warisan Anak Selangor (Yawas) funds.
