Semester 2 – 2023

messages onto a bulletin board falsely implicating that a certain Mr X, who lives
in Cape Town, had something to do with the terrorist attack. The bulletin board
is hosted by West-World Internet Ltd, an Internet Service Provider registered in
South Africa.
Answer the following questions. Discuss in detail by referring to applicable case
law, legislation and academic commentary.
(a) Mr X wants to notify West-World Internet Ltd that the messages are
defamatory and request the Internet service provider to remove them. What
legal steps would you advise X to take to lodge his complaint?

her agent).

(a) the full names and address of the complainant;
(b) the written or electronic signature of the complainant;
(c) identification of the right that has allegedly been infringed;
