An r/Malaysia post reports the Court of Appeal in Putrajaya upheld the conviction and RM10,000 fine against former Umany president Wong Yan Ke for insulting a former Universiti Malaya vice-chancellor, finding the Section 504 Penal Code offence proven beyond reasonable doubt and no error in the original ruling. The panel led by Justice Datuk Noorin Badaruddin stressed exercising freedom of speech within legal limits.
