ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) and DJ Butt on Tuesday agreed on a formula for payment of liabilities for sound engineering services provided during the months-long protest sit-in at Islamabad's D-Chowk.

Earlier on Monday, Butt had threatened to take legal action against the party over non-payment for his services provided during the months-long sit-in last year. He wrote an email to PTI Chairman Imran Khan, seeking his involvement into the matter.

PTI’s Naeem ul Haq had contacted Butt, soon after the story aired on the media, and invited him to Islamabad to discuss the issue.

Butt had claimed that the party still owes him Rs50 million after Rs60 million were paid during the sit-in.

Today, Butt met with Haq at PTI Central Secretariat, where they agreed upon a formula for payment of services provided during the sit-ins. The formula would be presented before the PTI chairman and finance board of the party for formal approval and then mode of payment would be discussed in another meeting within the next few days.
