@ The Malaysian Insider

KUALA LUMPUR, 24 Sept – The Tengku Temenggong of Kelantan, Tengku Muhammad Fakhry Sultan Ismail Petra’s wife and mother-in-law have yet to enter their defence to the defamation suit brought against them by the Kelantan prince although the writ was served on them nearly a month ago.

Tengku Fakhry’s counsel, Mohd Haaziq Pillay, when contacted by Bernama today, said he served the writ on Tengku Fakhry’s wife, Manohara Odelia Pinot, and her mother, Daisy Fajarina, through Messrs Fakrul Hisham Abdullah & Associates last month.

Messrs Fakrul Hisham was the law firm in Malaysia engaged by one of Daisy’s and Manohara’s lawyers in Indonesia to represent them in the suit, he said.

He said that according to procedure, the two had 14 days from the date of service of the writ to enter an appearance and another 14 days to enter their statement of defence.

“They entered a memorandum of appearance in the middle of August but to date have yet to enter their defence to the statement of claim filed by Tengku Fakhry,” he said.

However, lawyer Noor Hisham Abdullah, of Messrs Fakrul Hisham, could not be contacted for comment.

On July 20, Tengku Fakhry, the Sultan of Kelantan’s third son, filed a RM105 million suit in the Kuala Lumpur Civil High Court against Daisy ad Manohara claiming that he was defamed at news conferences in April and June.

The suit was filed after High Court senior assistant Safarudin Tambi allowed his application to commence defamation proceedings against the two as defendants.

In his statement of claim, Tengku Fakhry said that they had falsely and maliciously uttered slanderous words in allegations of sexual abuse on Manohara at news conferences between April and June.

The alleged defamatory words were republished in the electronic media like ‘The Jakarta Globe’, ‘Banjarmasin Post’, ‘Detiknews’, ‘Kompas.com’, ‘Global TV’ and Malaysiakini and widely reported in newspapers in Malaysia and Indonesia, he said.

He claimed that the words were designed to belittle and embarrass him as a member of the Kelantan royal household and also the government and people of Malaysia.

He also claimed that the allegations and insinuations were untrue, unfounded and had seriously damaged his personal reputation at the national and international levels. – MORE

“The defendants uttered the words motivated by financial gains,” claimed the prince, who is seeking RM105 million in aggravated, exemplary and compensatory damages, interest, costs and an injunction to restrain Manohara and her mother from further uttering the alleged defamatory words.

Tengku Fakhry, 31, and Manohara, 17, who holds the title Cik Puan Temenggong, were married on Aug 26 last year and lived in Istana Mahkota, Kubang Kerian, Kelantan.

Nine months after the marriage, Manohara suddenly returned to Indonesia without the permission or knowledge of her husband. – Bernama
