UK court orders Adil Raja to pay even more fine
A UK court has dismissed PTI-affiliated controversial YouTuber Major (retd) Adil Raja’s appeal to waive a £10,000 fine along with imposing an additional fine of 3,000 pounds.
Raja was originally fined for defamation by the UK court following a complaint by Brigadier (retd) Rashid Nasir. Raja had appealed for the waiving of the fine on April 16, 2024, just a day before the original deadline for payment.
Moreover, Adil Raja has also started a fundraiser for himself at GoFundMe with the title “Fight Against Fascism” which has already collected over £45,000.
In the past, Raja has claimed financial troubles to cover his fines and legal fees however the court’s ruling indicates that the plea did not convince the judges.
Brigadier Nasir’s legal action was initiated on August 11, 2022, following a campaign against him by Raja that began on June 14, 2022.
