Criminal slander only concerns spoken statements that are falsely asserted to harm another person's reputation. Such disputes often stem from interpersonal conflict, business issues, neighbourhood conflicts or interactions in social media.
Most types of criminal offences require the wronged party to file a private complaint in the competent court, and defamation offences have no exception to this rule. At this point, evidence will be important for establishing the facts, including recordings, witness statement or, messages or similar substantiating material.
If the defamatory statements are accompanied by threats, intimidation or conduct likely to cause public breach of peace, other laws may also become applicable. Early consultation with lawyers can mean people are informed about their rights and remedies.
