The High Court affirmed the Sessions Court: the defendant's social‑media publications were defamatory (they referred to the plaintiff and were published to third parties), the defendant failed to establish justification or fair comment because publications were made with malice and selective editing/misrepresentation, the defendant did not acquire ownership of the consigned bag and deposit was non‑refundable under the seller's terms; plaintiff proved reputational damage and the appeal was dismissed.
