britney spearsBritney Spears‘ dad is reportedly working himself up for Round Three of his new fight against her former BFF Sam Lutfi.

Sam was banned from seeing Britney after her dad Jamie Spears was gained a control order over the star last February. Sam, who claimed he was Britney’s manager, initially accepted the restraining order but towards the end of last year, began making claims that Britney was unhappy with the conservatorship and he was trying to “free her”.

Last Friday, Jamie filed a request for a new restraining order against Lutfi and against Britney’s ex-boyfriend Adnan Ghalib, claiming they were attempting to disrupt her recovery - and this week Jamie hit back, starting legal proceedings against Jamie and Britney’s mum Lynne Spears, suing them for ongoing defamation, battery and breach of contract.

Now according to the Sun, Jamie is looking to pursue a charge against Lutfi for allegedly drugging Britney at the start of last year.

Lutfi is said to have given Britney drugs without her knowledge before her hospitalisation at the end of January last year. According to Lynne Spears, Sam admitted he “grinds up Britney’s pills .. [and] puts them in her food”, to sedate her some of the time and to make her “happy and fun” at other times.

A source told the newspaper that Jamie has held back from pursuing the charges thus far because of Sam’s cooperation but is now “determined to pursue a criminal prosecution”.

“Jamie also believes Sam tried to take control of her life and finances.”

A source close to Lutfi added though: “Sam isn’t going down without a fight.”
