Rehman Malik sends defamation notice to US blogger Cynthia Ritchie

PPP senior leader and Chairman of Senate Standing Committee on Interior Rehman Malik on Sunday served a defamation notice to US blogger Cynthia D Ritchie over false, frivolous and baseless allegation of rape against him.

Senator Rehman Malik strongly rejected all allegations against him and termed those a pack of lies to damage his reputation.

The PPP leader sent defamation notice to US blogger through his lawyer Ch Abdur Rehman Bajwa. He said that he was fighting for the honour and respect of his leader Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto who sacrificed her life for the nation and he can face such kinds of hundreds of false and fabricated allegations in this fight.

Malik said that he had been continuously receiving life threats and arrest for his vocal statements against the government but the opponents must know that he was never afraid of jails as he had already seen even the death cells. He said “When my opponents found nothing against me they began my character assassination”.

He said that my conscience is clear and on time, he will be exposing the conspirators behind Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto and his character assassination and will show them the mirror.

He said that he has no personal enmity with the friendly country US national namely Cynthia Dawn Ritchie and he respects all women that is why he shall not use any counter remarks against her. He said that however time will tell whether she projected the soft image of Pakistan or not.
