LAHORE (Dunya News) – Chief Minister of Punjab (CM) Shehbaz Sharif’s lawyer on Thursday said that the fake allegations hurled by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chief Imran Khan have defamed my client’s name.

During the hearing of Rs10 billion suit against Imran Khan, the lawyer said that the case is admissible as PTI chief damaged the reputation of Punjab CM by his baseless accusation.

Earlier, Imran Khan claimed Shahbaz Sharif’s ally offered him Rs 10 billion to stay quiet on Panamagate but said that he would name the person if the government moves to court against him with a defamation suit.

“I am not naming the person because of the reason that revenge will be taken from him by PML-N,” he said.
