Ray Hadley loses defamation case

2GB's Ray Hadley has lost a defamation case over calling the wife of a convicted sex offender a "grub" for supporting her husband.

The claims were that he "destroyed the reputation" of a north-western Sydney fish-and-chip shop owner whose husband, Emran Ahmed, was convicted in 2007 of the aggravated indecent assault of a 17 year old student working for him.

Hadley agreed he had called Ahmed "low", "unfit to run a business" and "a silly woman" on his program.

He will find out how much it will cost him next Thursday.
