PCB legal advisor to take Shoaib Akhtar to court after unsatisfactory reply to legal notice[Post#85]

Above is not complete - as this was only available via Twitter
In 5 d) Rizvi discloses confidential reports of the PCB.

This is unlawful: the PCB is not suing Shoaib, Rizvi is as a private individual. And a private individual cannot use his employer’s confidential documents.

Yet Rizvi seems to have stolen confidential documents belonging to the PCB - his employer - and misused those stolen documents for personal gain in a private lawsuit.

Rizvi has now provided the PCB with a legitimate reason to terminate him.

Things in public domain are not confidential, this report was already leaked so most likely PCB won't care if Rizvi uses it. Woolmer's troubles with Shoaib are also well documented

The numerous cases Rizvi has lost for the PCB are also in the public domain. There is no way he has a success rate of 99% unless he considers getting his fees, billable time paid by the PCB victory
 
Senior lawyer and PCB’s legal counsel Tafazzul Rizvi on Monday said he will drag Shoiab Akhtar to the court since he is not satisfied with former pacer’s response to the defamation notice sent to him.

Rizvi, the long serving legal counsel of the PCB had sent a defamation notice to the fast bowler after he made some scathing remarks about him while criticising the three-year ban imposed on discarded Test batsman, Umar Akmal.

“I am not satisfied with the reply we have received from Shoaib Akhtar’s legal counsel and we will be taking him to court,” Rizvi said.

He said that the case would be filed on his behalf by senior barrister, Azam Tarar very soon.

Akhtar, in turn has demanded an unconditional apology and compensation of 10 million rupees to be donated to a charity. He came out more defiant insisting he will fight the legal case.

“Whatever I said on my channel was for betterment of Pakistan cricket and to point out to the Board where it needed to put things right. Whatever I said about Rizvi was based on my personal interaction with him,” Akhtar said.

The PCB while issuing a statement on Shoaib Akhtar’s video and sharply rebuking him had also made it clear that Rizvi had filed the notice in his personal capacity and not as a Board official.

Rizvi clarified that he had sent two notices to the Pakistan bowler one in Pakistan and one from London.

He has still not responded to the notice sent from London. We are waiting for the reply.”

Rizvi said that he intended to pursue the defamation case against Akhtar in the court of law in Pakistan and UK as his standing had been damaged by the fast bowler through his baseless and unacceptable remarks.

Excellent. Someone needs to give this loudmouth Actor a shut up call.

Great move to have the case filed in London as well. Actor can drag the case in Pakistan but that won't happen in London.

LOL. Softie, incompetent lawyer’s fans in full flow.
 
Wow, Akhtar must have some influence to damage a lawyer's image and standing based on some remarks. If someone's image and integrity is so solid and tight, another person's remarks should not make much difference. For e.g. look at Reham Khan, she has not wasted a single second, minute, hour, day, week, month, year since the divorce to make all sorts of remarks against IK but his standing has been completely unaffected. Maybe Rizvi had no real standing to begin with?

Taking the case to the UK, because he is. Nobody against Shoaib Akhtar in Pakistan?
 
Rizvi is such an incompetent buffoon.

Territorial jurisdiction has to be confirmed by a jury. If he forces this to court in London they will laugh at him, throw out the case and make Rizvi pay the costs of both the court and Akhtar.

Does this clown know anything about the profession in which he has been failing for decades?
 
No wonder the PCB lost to the BCCI about the tours they reneged on. Their legal counsel had the legal skills of Minnie Mouse.
 
Umar Akmal back in cricket ahead of his original ban.

Another failure by PCB legal?
 
So Akhtar insulted Rizvis name and got away with it lol
