Tomorrow politicians, journalists and the media industry's eyes will be trained on the hearing of Pahang Menteri Besar Adnan Yaakob's appeal against Utusan Melayu (M) Bhd, at the Federal Court.
The apex court will decide whether politicians can file defamation suits against the media or other individuals as public officials.
A decision on tomorrow's appeal would have serious repercussions on politicians' ongoing suits, especially Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak's existing five suits against others and the media, and other politicians who had filed similar defamation actions.
