00:00 The Kuala Lumpur High Court has ruled that former Penang Deputy Chief Minister P. Ramasamy
00:07 must pay 1.52 million ringgit in damages to Dr Zakir Naik for defaming the controversial
00:13 Islamic televangelist between 2017 and 2019.
00:18 Justice Hayatul Akmal Abdullaziz said Naik, who is a permanent resident in Malaysia, had
00:23 proved his case on the balance of probabilities.
00:27 In her verdict, Hayatul said Naik had met the burden of proof regarding the five statements
00:32 central to the two suits before her.
00:34 The judge also found Ramasamy's defense to be lacking in merit and untenable.
00:39 The court instructed Ramasamy to pay the judgment sum within 30 days but state his apology pending
00:45 oral submissions by both parties scheduled for December 1.
00:50 Outside the court, Ramasamy announced his intention to appeal the verdict.
00:54 In October and December 2019, Naik filed two separate suits alleging that Ramasamy had
01:00 made five defamatory statements about him which were uploaded onto several social media
01:05 sites and reported by a number of news portals between 2016 and 2019.
