Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan has said he would sue Maulana Fazlur Rehman, Chief of Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (Fazl), for calling him Jewish lobbyist.

Speaking in a news conference, Khan said that he would take Rahman to court for accusing him of being Jewish agent.

According to the Nation, he said that the party was preparing a notice to send it to Rehman, adding that they will be going to the court and ask him to prove his allegations.
