August 04, 2013 19:37

Cricketer-turned politician Imran Khan today said that he would sue Pakistan's prominent hardline leader Maulana Fazlur Rehman for accusing him of being a "Jewish agent".

"I have decided to file a defamation case against Maulana Fazlur Rehman and now let him prove him in the country his allegations against me," Imran, who heads the Pakistan-e-Tehreek Insaaf party told a press conference.

Maulana Rehman, a prominent religious and political leader who heads the influential Jamiat'"e-Ulema Pakistan, this week said on a show on Geo News channel that after a lot of study and work he had come to the conclusion that Imran was working for the Jewish lobby in Pakistan.
