Apart from Wasim Akram, Reham’s first husband Ijaz Rehman, PTI International Media Coordinator Anila Khawaja and businessman Zulfikar Bukhari are the other persons who have sent legal notices to Reham Khan.

Reham has written a book on her personal life experiences as a “mother, wife, journalist and warrior.” The book is going to be published soon as her lawyer Yasser Latif Hamdani recently told The Express Tribune in an exclusive interview, “The book, as far as I know, is going to be published either in July or even August. It is a closely guarded secret. I haven’t talked to my client about the dates as such.”

According to the notice from pace legendary Wasim Akram, it described the content of the book as “a litany of malicious, false, incorrect, highly misleading, callous, wanton, tortious, prejudicial, damaging, libellous, and defamatory imputations.”

The notice further claimed, “This is grossly defamatory, indecent and disrespectful to our client’s late wife. Wasim Akram is an internationally well known former Pakistani cricketer and media personality who is being acknowledged by cricket experts and fans as being one of the best test fast bowlers in the history of first-class cricket.”

According to some reports, Reham got 14 days to agree to not publish those false contents in her upcoming autobiography. The notice further added that she has to give in writing that those contents were false and not to be repeated in the published books.

In failure to meet up the terms and conditions, they will take the matter to the high court.
