PTI chief Imran Khan has said that he will approach international courts against the Jang Group, alleging that the news outlet was involved in “character assassination” against him.

“I have to sadly say that I don’t have any hope from our justice system. So I have decided to approach the courts in London against the Geo group […] I will file a case there against the character assassination they’ve done.

“I will also file a case against this person [Umar Farooq Zahoor] Dubai, and I will also initiate a case against Geo group in Dubai and Pakistan,” he said, claiming that the news outlet was using its platform for propaganda and not journalism.
