ISLAMABAD: After months of litigation, Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leader Senator Rehman Malik and US blogger Cynthia Dawn Ritchie finally withdrew their petitions against each other, apparently after reaching an ‘out-of-court settlement’ of their dispute.
Started from the sessions court, Mr Malik and Ms Cynthia’s legal fight had reached the Supreme Court.
In October last year, the Supreme Court had dismissed Mr Malik’s appeal and upheld Sept 1 directive of the Islamabad High Court (IHC) about remanding back for a review to Justice of Peace the matter involving registration of a First Information Report (FIR) against the petitioner over allegations of rape levelled by the US blogger.
