Earlier this month, Dr Shahbaz Gill had come under fire for comments that labelled lady constable Faiza Nawaz as “emotional” and touted “misinformation” and “provocation” pertaining to a case involving Nawaz.
Dr Shahbaz Gill was speaking to Geo News about how Ahmed Mukhtar Advocate, a lawyer intoxicated on power, had violently slapped Constable Faiza Nawaz in public, but the court approved his release on bail.
