for me personally, it was irrelevant how Imran conducted himself behind the doors, including his sexual preferences and his belief in spirituality and all the rituals that were allegedly carried out at former prime minster's residence.
I am more interested in how that affected him in making decisions for the country. I do suspect an agenda in addition to some spicey story for the paper to increase sales revenue and subscriptions. this story benefits Imran's opponents in the establishment and in politics. But this fact alone cant be used to dismiss this article but it must be challenged in the UK, if the story is fabricated and meant to harm the reputation of Imran and his wife.
as of now, there is no news of taking the paper to the court yet other than some social media reaction by steadfast followers and supporters of PTI with their colorful language.
