افترى الكذب = اختلقه
Slander, calumny, etc, have more specific meanings than افتراءات
which is semantically more general, like lies or أكاذيب
Calumny: "A false statement maliciously made to injure another's reputation".
From your context, it is not clear that such specific intent is behind the افتراءات
and أكاذيب
والله أعلم
means "a fabrication of what is untrue", such as concocting a false allegation.
