“My client categorically rebut(s) the allegations as incorrect, and states on oath that my client did not print the alleged ballot papers for the 2013 elections,” said the defamation notice, which was also sent to the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP).
The counsel of M/s S. Shaukat Noor Printers said his client was being criticised and humiliated in the public domain, and was being termed as a conspirator following a press conference given by Imran.
PTI had also accused the Punjab election commissioner of having millions of fake ballot papers printed from a private printing press to be used for rigging.
"You have simply made your accusation on your own presumption without any substance,” the counsel said in the legal notice, adding that false accusations, which cannot be supported by any evidence, were levelled against his client.
The counsel asked the PTI chief to withdraw his allegations and to clarify that his statement was based on false information, as well as to exonerate his client for all kinds of accusations within 15 days of receipt of notice.

election have to be free and fair, govt is by the people and for the people. Pakistan has never had democracy nor it has any prospect of attaining any under the current monarchy of two party. muckmukoo system.
A country which is tolrating mobocracy for the last one month and sufferred from dictatorship many times in the past . Then how can we think of ideal democracy there . Democracy evolves , it do not comes all of sudden . Democracy is for them who deserve it . Plz think , if u can .
@Tewari
Under genuine democracy the term of a government is based on how favorable it is amongst the people it rules. Parliament can get dissolved when the government falls in disfavor. Of course in case of the current setup it is only pseudo democracy, and the term is determined by how long this government intends to stay.
but you can use your votting right after the lapse of four year ,till then you have to bear him . There after every things will become ceystal clear to all not only to Pakistani voters .
Well its that true the ballot papers was printed falsely and everybody should to know how is behind. PTI did their job to mention this issue just need to investigate that how is behind this corruption. yeah PMLN did some project for the next turn but i wont happen again. peoples of pakistan awake know just need to give them a right direction to fly. PTI is the only hope right know.
@ csmann Yeah well if shahbaz sharif making metro buses and stupid road can cause economic development,create jobs then why not imran khan dharna provide employment :)
@z..... If The reality of corruption which is evident and of which proofs have also been given, is something which you can't see then you picked the right name. zzzzzzzz...... Keep dreaming.....
@Rawalpindi Kid: Actually, the country is in dumps because people like you believe whatever they hear, without any awareness of something called 'evidence'.
IK says his dharnas created jobs and provided employment to hundreds of vendors.Great economic policy!!!
@Z: Wah Wah, Mr. Z. You want to put IK behind bars for speaking the truth, meanwhile the looters, plunderers and murderers of PMLN and PPP are free to do their dirty deeds. No wonder the country is in the dumps. Have you not had enough of NS after 3 terms of looting the country and only one highway and a metro bus to show, that too to further loot the country? Mega projects are popular with these looters because they mean mega corruption via kickbacks. Have you even stopped to wonder how NS and family got so rich while seemingly "serving" the country? Open your eyes!
There will be a number of cases filed against IK when the created political termoil will settle down and PM Nawaz Sharif will consolidate his position due to on going war against terrorists in the country .
Poor chap earns his livelyhood in Lahore the hub of some MPA/MNA ruffians of the area. He does not even know what he has been directed to do, you know by whom.
