In the latest news of PM Lee against Leong Sze Hian, the latter has applied to the high court to strike out PM Lee's defamation action against him.
The Application is taken out under Order 18 Rule 19(1) of the Rules of Court and the grounds are that the claim is;
a) Scandalous, frivolous or vexatious; and/or
b) may prejudice, embarrass or delay the fair trial of the action; and/or
c) an Abuse of Process of the Court.
We await more news on their applications. It is undoubtedly an uphill battle. Kudos for standing up for Singapore!
