ISLAMABAD: A PML-N's consultative meeting chaired by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has decided to sue the PTI chief over his bribery claim.

The meeting, held to review the Supreme Court’s decision on Panama case, was attended by federal ministers, advisers and legal experts here on Thursday.

Sources said that the meeting had decided that a defamation notice would be sent to Imran Khan over his bribery allegation. In this connection, a team comprising legal experts has also been formed.

The sources said the participants of the meeting rejected the Imran Khan’s claim that the prime minister had offered him Rs10 billion to back off from the Panama case.

The meeting said that the Imran Khan’s allegation had proved wrong at all forums, including courts.
