Fadhli’s lawyers, from the firm Nazrul Nazir & Co, said they filed the suit on behalf of their client on Nov 2.
According to the lawyers, Salim’s post on June 7 not only claimed that Fadhli was a Rohingya, but also that he was among the “foreigners” now controlling the Dewan Rakyat.
“Our client says such claims are untrue and misleading, and they tarnished his reputation and credibility as an elected MP,” the law firm said in a statement today.
