The Kuala Lumpur High Court fixed March 30 for case management of Anwar Ibrahim's RM10 million defamation suit against Deputy Education Minister Wee Ka Siong for allegedly uttering defamatory words.
High court deputy registrar Nazri Ismail set the date in chambers today upon meeting Anwar's counsel Wan Anuar Shaddat Mohamed Amin and Ng Chew Hor for Wee, when the case came up for case management.
On April 18, 2008, Anwar filed the suit claiming that Wee had uttered defamatory words during the latter's campaign at a ceramah in the Machap by-election in 2007.
He said that the defamatory words were contained in an article entitled 'Parties at their last leg of campaigning' which was posted on the Malaysiakini website.
Anwar contended that the defamatory words by Wee were intentional and used in bad faith.
