Lalit Modi, the former chairman of the Indian Premier League (IPL), has announced his intention to sue Rahul Gandhi, a senior leader of India’s Opposition party, the Congress, in a UK court. This comes after Gandhi made allegedly defamatory statements against Modi in a tweet.
“”I have decided to take Rahul Gandhi to court in UK right away. I am sure he will have to come-up with some solid evidence. I look forward to seeing him make a complete fool of himself,” he tweeted.
The dispute between Modi and Gandhi dates back to 2010, when Modi was accused of financial irregularities in the IPL. Gandhi recently tweeted a statement, in which he referred to Modi as a “fugitive” and accused him of being involved in financial irregularities in the IPL. Modi has denied the allegations and has called them defamatory.
