American-Pakistani Houston-based renowned business tycoon, philanthropist, and Democratic leader Tanweer Ahmed —the owner of the largest cricket complex in Houston, the Prairie View Cricket Complex, and the owner of the Houston Hurricanes cricket franchise — has rejected all allegations of Muhammad Tahir Javed against him and all of his social medial propaganda.
Tahir Javed earlier filed a high-profile defamation lawsuit in a local court against County Judge KP George, his Chief of Staff Tarl Patel, and Pakistani businessman Tanweer Ahmed for allegedly orchestrating a defamatory campaign against him on social media platforms. Tanweer Ahmed rejected all allegations and proved them wrong.

The notice accused Javed of producing a documentary containing false and misleading information about Tanweer Ahmed damaging his reputation and business dealings, particularly in light of a supposed rivalry linked to Javed's son’s political campaign.
The legal notice outlines specific claims against Javed including the dissemination of false information regarding Ahmed’s affiliations and financial dealings during an election campaign. Tanweer Ahmed demanded a written and on-air apology, along with compensation of five billion rupees for the damages incurred due to defamation.
Tahir Javed is a prominent figure in American politics, having hosted influential leaders such as Hillary Clinton and President Joe Biden at his residence. He has also played a critical role in strengthening Pakistan-U.S. relations and was instrumental in reorganizing the Congressional Pakistan Caucus alongside the late Congresswoman Sheila Jackson. As this case unfolds, it not only highlights the ongoing issues of defamation and political rivalry but also raises broader questions about the intersection of business, politics, and social media in the modern era.
