“Looking forward to…”: Lalit Modi Threatens to Sue Rahul Gandhi in the United Kingdom

Lalit Modi’s decision to sue Rahul Gandhi comes just days after the latter was found guilty in a defamation case for comments about the surname Modi.

New Delhi: Lalit Modi, the former commissioner of the Indian Premier League (IPL), has announced that he will sue Rahul Gandhi, the former president of the Congress party, in a UK court over remarks he made about corruption and money laundering. Mr Modi, who has been living in London since 2010 after being accused of financial irregularities in the IPL, slammed Mr Gandhi on Twitter on Thursday, saying he “looked forward to seeing him make a complete fool of himself.”

A few days after Mr. Gandhi was found guilty of defamation and given a two-year prison sentence by a Surat court for remarks he made at an election rally in 2019 that were perceived as an insult to the prime minister and those who share his surname, Mr. Modi decided to take legal action against him. Why do thieves all share the last name Modi? In his remarks, Mr. Gandhi included PM Modi alongside Lalit Modi and wanted diamond heiress Nirav Modi. His disqualification from serving in parliament as a result of the conviction.

Mr. Modi asserted that he has never been convicted of a crime and questioned Mr. Gandhi’s justification for referring to him as a “fugitive of justice.” He also asserted that his family has done more for India than the Gandhi family and that he has produced “the greatest sporting event in this world,” which has brought in close to 100 billion dollars. He urged Mr. Gandhi to back up his claims, and he said he was eager to watch him humiliate himself in front of the jury.

Additionally, Mr. Modi claimed that he could provide the addresses and pictures of the properties owned by a number of Congress leaders who were accused of having assets abroad. He declared that as soon as India adopts strict libel laws, he will come back.

Mr. Gandhi is still silent in response to Mr. Modi’s tweets and legal threat. His party has insisted that his conviction was motivated by politics, and he will file an appeal with a higher court. Mr. Gandhi has made no secret of his disapproval of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his administration on a number of fronts, most notably crony capitalism.
