Afridi should take them to court for defamation.
I agree if this is fake (which i can say 99% for sure), and AFAIR they created the Twitter account for busting fake news so post there and also apply the cyber crime laws so that It gives clear message to all other media groups not to fabricate such news in future.

First of all this type of a desperate and full of excitement event is not expected by Afridi, If Imran has heard this I hope it is wrong.
And I believe it will be 99% exaggerated by GEO, the famous non reliable media channel, specially when it comes to malign Pakistani establishment, Government or some good people.
AFRIDI IS A NICE, HONEST AND GOD FEARING PERSON, I HOPE HE HASN'T DONE THIS MISTAKE
