Preity Peeved: Zinta Sues Websites Over Fake Drug Abuse Reports!

She's Preity mad over the issue. And with good reason. Reportedly, Preity Zinta is suing at least seven websites for slandering her name and insinuating that she was into substance abuse and publishing fabricated reports based on it. Apparently, the actress is miffed with news claiming that her name was stored in a cocaine dealers' mobile, together with a picture of her using the drug. Furthermore, the reports asserted that PZ had checked into a rehab centre in the US to rid herself of the drug menace.

Word has it that the actress is demanding crores by way of defamation from the offending websites.

As per close sources, the actress has already contacted the Cyber Cell of the Mumbai Police, apart from engaging the services of a lawyer. Preity's grouse is that her equity and image is at stake; her suspicion is that it is one source that has been leaking the false and unsavoury news about her to various websites.

Preity's hunches point to a certain Delhi businessman who'd been harassing her in the past and with whom she had a fallout earlier. Although PZ admits to being unnerved by such slander, she's determined to get to the root of it all.

And once the identity of the culprit is confirmed, she plans to take stringent legal action against him.
