A past co-worker / colleague was recently hired at the company I work for.
However, in the past, I had heard rumours that this co-worker/colleague had been under house arrest for some 'family issues.
He has recently applied for the new company that I currently work for/with.
I mentioned that I had heard rumours of this past co-workers/colleagues supposed leagal trouble/incarceration.
Could I be held liable for 'defamation'?
