Observer Report Lahore
Prime Minister Imran Khan has submitted a reply in a defamation case filed by Opposition Leader Shahbaz Sharif over the former’s remarks that he was offered a bribe to stop pursuing the Panama Papers case which later led to the disqualification of Nawaz Sharif, the three-time prime minister of the country.
Four years back, Shahbaz Sharif filed a Rs10 billion defamation lawsuit against Imran Khan for accusing him of offering bribe to stay silent over the Panama Papers allegations against the Sharif family.
According to a reply filed in a Lahore session court, Imran Khan while demanding to reject the defamation suit said that he was not directly offered money from Nawaz Sharif or Shahbaz Sharif.
