High Court issues writ to seize social media influencer Caprice’s assets after he failed to pay RM8,000 in costs from a defamation lawsuit.

KUALA LUMPUR: The High Court has ordered the seizure of assets belonging to social media influencer Caprice for failing to pay RM8,000 in court-awarded costs.

A writ of seizure and sale was issued against Caprice, whose real name is Ariz Ramli, on December 3 last year.

The order was obtained by shipping company CEO Datuk Seri R Jeyenderan following a defamation suit.

The total sum due is RM8,000 from an October 15 court order, plus RM320 in allocatur and execution costs.

The writ authorises bailiffs to seize and sell the defendant’s movable property to settle the debt.

Jeyenderan’s lawyers confirmed bailiffs attempted to execute the writ at Caprice’s Mont Kiara residence.

“Upon arrival, the doorbell was pressed several times, but there was no response,” said counsel Muniandy Vestanathan.

The execution failed as apartment management said his tenancy ended last year and he had moved out.

Judge Roslan Mat Nor had ordered Caprice to pay the costs within two weeks last October.

The payment was never made.

Jeyenderan filed the suit on July 21, 2025 over Instagram posts made on July 10 that year.

The posts allegedly linked Jeyenderan to criminal activities and gangsterism without evidence.

He is seeking RM3 million in damages for reputational harm and other relief.
