'I’m still a Datuk Seri' – Gnanaraja denies being stripped of title

Businessperson G Gnanaraja has denied being stripped of his Datuk Seri award.

"(I’m) still Datuk Seri. That (stripping) is just a rumour," he told Malaysiakini this morning when spotted at the Shah Alam Sessions Court.

Recently, a picture was circulated on social media featuring a letter dated March 13, purportedly from the Pahang government, which stated that Gnanaraja's title was being withdrawn.

Described on his website as a Malaysian actor, film producer, social entrepreneur and public speaker, Gnanaraja also has a number of business interests.

His wife Geethanjali is a prominent social media personality among the Tamil-speaking community. - Mkini
