Answer:

2. Libel

Explanation:

Libel is often described as a written statement made in "reckless disregard of the truth" that is considered damaging to a victim because it is "malicious, scandalous, and defamatory".

A libel most times disregards the truth nature of the statement being made.

Its intent is to paint someone or a group of people in bad light, hence making a victim of the person.

A situation whereby one goes ahead to make reckless statement about another without minding if what is been said is true, and also defaming the persons character through lies and malicious words, is simply a case of a libel.
