Communications and Digital Minister Fahmi Fadzil has resorted to newspaper listing as a substituted service for his defamation suit against blogger Wan Muhammad Azri Wan Deris, popularly known as Papagomo.

The Kuala Lumpur High Court allowed the plaintiff’s bid for substituted service two weeks ago, following his legal team being unable to serve copies of the suit on the defendant linked to the allegation that the minister gave a political talk in a Rawang mosque.
