Singapore High Court to determine damages for Lee Hsien Yang's defamation of Cabinet ministers K. Shanmugam and Vivian Balakrishnan.
Singapore's High Court is determining the damages to be paid by Lee Hsien Yang for defaming Cabinet ministers K. Shanmugam and Vivian Balakrishnan, stemming from a July 2023 Facebook post accusing them of corruption. The ministers filed defamation suits against Lee in August 2023. The High Court previously granted default judgment in favor of the ministers after Lee failed to respond, and an injunction was granted to prevent further publication of defamatory allegations.
