The Pahang government’s defamation suit against an environmentalist over logging issue in the state would remain at the Temerloh High Court.

Lawyer Rajesh Nagarajan said that the Temerloh court last year had dismissed the application by the defendant, Peka's founder and ex-president Shariffa Sabrina Syed Akil, to transfer the civil action to the Kuala Lumpur High Court.
