LAHORE February 18, 2017: Regrettably, even after the injunctive order Sarfraz Nawaz is continuing with his vitriol campaign and is leveling false allegations for which contempt of court proceeding have also been initiated. It is astonishing that despite the injunctive order, TV channels are providing airtime to Sarfraz Nawaz which is tantamount to contempt of court.
In a Suit no 32/ 5-6-15 Najam Aziz Sethi vs. Sarfraz Nawaz for damages of 100 million under defamatory ordinance 2002 is pending before the District Court, Lahore for the slanderous, false, malicious, defamatory and concocted statements/allegations leveled by Sarfraz Nawaz against Mr. Najam Sethi.
