Malaysiakini | Suaram’s lawyer Amer Hamzah Arshad called Wangsa Maju MP Wee Choo Keong’s allegation, that he had furnished false information on the human rights NGO, “false and baseless”. Amer said he viewed Wee’s allegation as defamatory and tantamount to assassination of his personal character and reputation.
The Edge Markets | Edmund Bon spoke at a forum on social media at the National Young Lawyers Forum. He hoped for social media to become a threat to dictators or corrupt regimes that abuse human rights, and urged lawyers to be involved in activism and to uphold justice.
