KUALA LUMPUR (Feb 3): Former health minister Datuk Seri Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad has filed a RM5 million libel suit against former premier Datuk Seri Najib Razak. The defamation suit was filed in the High Court here on Dec 31, 2021 by the firm of Messrs Farida & Company. Despite the denial, the former health minister said the posting made by Najib was still there as of November 2021. “That Facebook post was edited six times after that and this shows that he planned the publication in defaming me,” the former health minister said in his statement of claim. Najib's Facebook post had garnered 15,000 reactions, with 12,000 likes, followed by 2,400 (haha), 106 (wow), 65 (love), 25 (angry), four (sad) and 11 (care).
