Pernahkah hangpa dengaq portal berita disaman pasai komen
pembacanya? DAN didenda RM1/2 juta, perlu dibayar dalam tempoh 3 hari? Mahkamah
Persekutuan memutuskan bahawa Malaysiakini bertanggungjawab kerana menghina
mahkamah menerusi komen pembacanya. Ini merupakan kali pertama Malaysiakini
menghadapi tuduhan menghina mahkamah sepanjang 21 tahun penubuhannya. Pada 15
Jun tahun lalu, Peguam Negara, Idrus Harun mengemukakan permohonan menghina
mahkamah terhadap portal berita tersebut.
Malaysiakini has been fined RM500,000 for contempt of court in
relation to the news portal's readers' comments. "We are of the view that
a fine of RM500,000 is appropriate. "We order the fine by the first
respondent to be paid within three days from Monday (next week)," Court of
Appeal president Rohana Yusuf said.
Malaysiakini launched a fundraiser to raise the said amount.The
fundraiser was to help the news portal pay for a RM500,000 fine after the
Federal Court found Malaysiakini liable for contemptuous comments by its
readers.
Malaysiakini has exceeded its RM500,000 fundraising target in
under five hours. The rakyat has spoken. The people are watching. For letting
so many felons go, punish PN in the next GE. https://m.malaysiakini.com/news/563603
Satu hari saja, 505k. Apakah indikator yang dapat ditafsirkan
disebalik kemurahan orang ramai menghulurlan derma membantu portal
berkenaan???...
1. Mungkin penderma simpati merasakan denda sebanyak itu tidak
patut dan melampau.
2. Ia menunjukkan kebencian rakyat kepada gomen hari ini makin
membara.
3. Petanda ini menggambarkan gomen pimpinan Din Yassin bakal
hanyut. - minah kerang
