برطانوی عدالتوں نے ریحام خان پر زلفی بخاری پر جھوٹےالزامات پر ہرجانے اور معافی مانگنے کا حکم دیا، اس طرح کا قانونی نظام پاکستان میں لانے کی کوشش کو آزادی اظہار کے خلاف کہ کر میڈیا مالکان مہم شروع کر دیتے ہیں، بہرحال ریحام کا جھوٹا ہونا ایک بار پھر ثابت ہوا دراصل وہ عادی جھوٹی ہے pic.twitter.com/D3voVXaC6e

Earlier, Zulfi Bukhari had approached the London High Court over eight charges of benefitting from the sale of Manhattan’s Roosevelt Hotel owned by Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) in the Reko Diq case.
The former BBC weather broadcaster Reham had uploaded a YouTube video in December 2019 in which she had alleged that the ex-adviser had a ‘personal interest’ in the sale of the national asset.
She had also posted four tweets in the same context.
Referencing the same case, the information minister yet again pushed for a law against fake news in Pakistan which has been vehemently opposed by the media outlets.
