Advisor to the Prime Minister on Accountability Mirza Shahzad Akbar has on Wednesday served a defamation notice to Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz lawmaker Marriyum Aurangzeb for her press statement earlier in the day.
Apologize for the statements publicly or face defamation trial claiming Rs500 million in damages, the notice tells PML-N’s Aurangzeb. The accountability advisor also announced the development on his Twitter handle saying his lawyers have served the notice to Marriyum Aurangzeb on his instructions. “She has been asked to apologize or she will be taken to court.” The notice tells Marriyum Aurangzeb to take back the ‘defamatory statement’ about him and apologize for it unconditionally.
