Remember that this isn't America. The legal definition of defamation is probably different. In some jurisdictions, even true statements can constitute defamation.
IANAL, however here you have such a thing: Defamation doesn't have to be considered a crime if it's a public statement of a fact that either concerns public official or is expressed in defense of a legitimate interest (this one here would be right to repair, right to fair competition, strategic interests of the state and some others)
