LAHORE:A sessions court Monday heard a Rs 2 billion damages suit filed by singer Meesha Shafi against singer, actor Ali Zafar.

Additional District and Sessions Judge Amjad Ali Shah ordered Ali Zafar to file his reply and adjourned hearing until October 17. Meesha Shafi has filed the suit against Ali Zafar for making false allegations against her on media.

The petitioner submitted that Ali Zafar had claimed that she had levelled harassment allegations against him for monetary benefits. She submitted that the fake statements had caused a loss to her goodwill and pleaded with the court to direct the respondent to pay damages.
