Attorney-general Mohamed Apandi Ali has a solution for the media against politicians who always claim they have been misquoted when the evidence has proven otherwise, that is, to haul them to court.
He was responding to a question by the Sun daily’s investigative journalist R Nadeswaran who lamented how media practitioners are accused of publishing false news but the politician in question can simply claim that he or she was misquoted.
“You have a legal remedy, sue him,” Apandi told Nadeswaran during the question and answer session after his luncheon talk to media practitioners and academicians in Kuala Lumpur today.
“Once in a while, you got to teach them a lesson. I, too, don't like people who lie when it (the evidence) is clear, it was tape recorded,” he said.
Apandi added how taking such politicians to court was not a normal thing as not all ministers like to claim misquotation.
“Only a few, one or two, so you pick up one or two, sue them,” he said.
