KUALA LUMPUR — The Shah Alam High Court has entered a consent judgment against activist Abdul Razak Ismail in Malaysian Resources Corporation Bhd’s (MRCB) conspiracy suit over social media postings on the Shah Alam Stadium redevelopment.
Judicial Commissioner Shoba Rajah recorded the terms on June 22, after Abdul Razak agreed to a permanent injunction restraining him from publishing or republishing the impugned allegations.
He must also remove all relevant postings within 72 hours and undertake not to conspire with blogger Murray Hunter or any other parties in relation to similar claims.
MRCB’s counsel Datuk Selva Mookiah confirmed that proceedings against Hunter, believed to be in Thailand, will continue in absentia. The court has fixed July 10 for plaintiff submissions, with judgment scheduled for July 17.
This is not Abdul Razak’s first entanglement with MRCB. In 2023, he was forced to retract remarks and apologize in court in another consent judgment settlement over defamatory statements concerning the same stadium project, as reported by Malay Mail.
MRCB initiated the suit against Abdul Razak and Hunter, alleging that their online publications amounted to economic sabotage, damaging the company’s reputation and undermining the stadium redevelopment project.
Selva told reporters after the proceedings that the company views the allegations as serious attempts to derail public confidence in the project.
Abdul Razak was represented by Rajesh Nagarajan. – June 24, 2026
