The Malaysian government has succeeded in its application to strike out Lawyers for Liberty’s (LFL) two suits linked to Singapore’s attempt to enforce the republic’s anti-fake news law against the local law advocacy group.

Kuala Lumpur High Court judge Ahmad Kamal Mohd Shahid allowed the striking-out application against LFL’s two originating summons late this afternoon.
