City-based real estate baron Avinash Bhosale has filed a Rs 400-crore defamation suit against AAP leader Preeti Sharma Menon and three others for allegedly putting out a false story in the media against him in connection with a land transaction.

Last month, Menon, Rajesh Bajaj of Bhrashtachar Virodhi Gandhigiri Jan Andolan and two others accused the former Maharashtra revenue minister and BJP leader Eknath Khadse of unduly favouring Bhosale's firm in connection with land in Shivajinagar area in Pune.
