With former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak unable to delay his appeal hearing at the Federal Court, several of his supporters took to social media to attack Chief Justice Tengku Maimun Tuan Mat's husband, Zamani Ibrahim.

One set of social media users accused Zamani of authoring a Facebook post on May 11, 2018, where he expressed happiness that Najib had been "dethroned".

The post was accessible yesterday but not at the time of writing.

However, screenshots of the post, along with Zamani's photograph, have been widely shared by critics of the Federal Court panel hearing Najib's final appeal.
