Goel has sought a written apology within seven days failing which he would go ahead with legal proceedings, including prosecution for criminal defamation.

“The car does not belong to my client’s son. The false and defamatory allegations and statements have damaged the reputation of my client,” according to the notice, sent by an advocate on behalf of the speaker.
