Singapore's highest court on Wednesday upheld a ruling that the Far Eastern Economic Review, a News Corp. magazine slated for closure, defamed two of the country's top officials.

The appeals-court panel on Wednesdayagreed with a ruling last year that a 2006 Far Eastern Economic Review story improperly tied Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and his father, the former prime minister, to corruption. The court also found the Review improperly suggested the Lees used libel lawsuits to cover up misdeeds.

The Lees sued over the article, about Chee Soon Juan, an opposition party leader and a frequent critic of the Lees.
