Defamation proceedings against The Times of India- S T A T U S R E P O R T

Defamation proceedings against The Times of India-

S T A T U S R E P O R T

Dear All,

Salaam Alai Kum

I trust this email finds you well.

I would like to update you all regarding the present state of affairs pertaining to defamation proceedings tiled "Farrukh Khan Vs. The Times of India & others" in court of law against The Times of India and others for their article/write-up captioned "AMU: where degrees are sold like toffees"

The earlier date of hearing was on April 2, 2009 and the matter was adjourned due to no show of the counsel representing Times of India in the court. The next date is scheduled to be on October 14, 2009. The advocate representing me pleased to ex parte award in my favor to which the court refused. I am required to submit an affidavit in the court to this effect and I am travelling to India for this purpose on May 28, 2009.

I am optimistic that results of this proceeding, though in long length of time, will produce positive output. Till now TOI remains defensive in court and is trying to convince that its intention was not to defame AMU in particular and Muslim community in general by effect of the disputed article.

You all may rest assured that further developments, of course, shall be reported to you once and when occurred.

Should you need any further information/clarifications/assistance re the subject matter please do not hesitate to contact me.

May Allah bless us!

Best regards,

Farrukh Khan
