Jamal Yunos issues public apology to Khairy, settling defamation suit
Khairy initiated the suit on May 24, 2023, arising from a media statement allegedly containing defamatory remarks made during the 2022 Umno General Assembly on Jan 14 of that year.
Reading the draft consent judgment, Jamal admitted that his allegations against the former Rembau member of parliament were false, unfounded and lacking in sufficient evidence.
“I sincerely regret the publication and dissemination of the said statements, which have caused distress, public contempt and injury to Khairy’s reputation, character and credibility.
“Accordingly, I hereby retract fully all defamatory statements I issued against Khairy during the media conference and in the said publication,” he said.
