Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Information and Broadcasting Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan on Saturday said maligning his opponents through fake news has been the hallmark of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Shahbaz Sharif.

Referring to lawsuit filed by Shahbaz Sharif in London High Court against a United Kingdom newspaper, she said: It has been the character of Shahbaz Sharif to influence the media.

In a tweet, Dr Firdous Awan, however, said the PML-N leader stands entangled in his own trap. She said the courts in England would also see the real face of Shahbaz Sharif.

She said it would not have taken him six months to move the court if he was truthful. She said the nation remembered misuse of news print quota for arm twisting of media during PML-N rule.
