Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) lawmaker Daniyal Aziz has served a legal notice to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan for using “defamatory remarks” against him.
Addressing a news conference on Thursday, Daniyal said that his disclosure to media about the hydel power scam in the Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P) government had jolted Imran into passing defamatory remarks against him on television.
A notice provided for payment of Rs1.5 billion compensatory damages had been sent to Imran who is out to level baseless allegations against the PML-N in frustration, he added. The PML-N leader urged the PTI chief to reply to the notice in 14 days or tender an apology.
In fact, he alleged, the K-P government had failed to utilise the funds exclusively meant for hydel projects to produce electricity. “The funds were invested in the stock exchange as highlighted by the K-P budget document.
