advice

someone hacked my mobile phone and he was able to listen each conversation by me through the mobile phone so the thing is I got that my mobile phone is hacked and I made a defamatory statement against the hacker and he listened my statement now can the hacker file a defamation case against me? I did not make the defamatory statement public though

Hacking is itself a crime.

I know that but I also made a defamatory statement which is also a crime so can he file any defamation case against me?

Defamation does not sustain if not made public or published. Moreover a true statement doesn't match defamation. 

He can file suit, but taking cognizance of the case by the court matters most!

I did not make it public or publish so he can not case against me right?
