Inspector-General of Police Razarudin Husain donated RM10,000 to the Police Heritage Trust Fund yesterday.
The amount is from the full legal costs awarded by the court against Wan Azri Wan Deris - better known as Papagomo - to pay to Razarudin after allowing an inter-parte injunction application by the IGP as the plaintiff in the defamation suit he filed against Wan Azri, the defendant.
The money was handed over to the fund’s managing director Abdul Aziz Abdul Majid at his office in Kuala Lumpur.
Razarudin hopes the donation will benefit the children of police personnel who excel academically, and those who face health and financial burdens.
“It is a fund obtained from a court order against the defendant Papagomo, who was ordered to pay legal costs in court proceedings after the court issued an injunction in the defamation suit on Jan 10.
“I hope this contribution can ease the burden borne by the children of police officers,” he said when contacted yesterday.
On Jan 10, the High Court allowed an inter-parte injunction application by Razarudin in the RM3 million suit he filed against Papagomo for alleged defamation and ordered the defendant to pay RM10,000 in cost to the plaintiff.
