Papagomo identity confirmed, faces contempt

The Kuala Lumpur High Court today ruled that former police officer Wan Muhammad Azri Wan Deris is indeed the pro-Umno blogger Papagomo. Besides ordering him to pay RM500,000 in a defamation claim, judicial commissioner Vazeer Alam Mydin Meera is also moving him for contempt for another posting 'Justice for sale', which implicated the presiding judge and is considered prejudicial to the judiciary.
