Famous Pakistani singer Rahat Fateh Ali Khan has denied reports of him being arrested in Dubai, asking his followers not to pay heed to such news.

The singer's clarification came after Pakistani media reported that he was arrested in Dubai over a defamation complaint by his former manager.

Rahat, who has also lent his voice to songs in many Indian films, was in Dubai for a musical collaboration. The reports claimed he was detained at the immigration centre and taken into police custody for questioning.

According to a report by Geo TV, Rahat’s former manager Ahmed had submitted complaints against him to the Dubai authorities.

According to the report, Rahat dismissed Ahmed a few months ago following a dispute and the duo filed cases against each other.
