LAHORE- The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has summoned comedian Ali Gul Pir, Iffat Omar, and others for allegedly ‘maligning’ singer and actor Ali Zafar. These proceedings are connected to Zafar’s ongoing defamation case against Meesha Shafi, who accused him of sexual harassment.
According to Express Tribune, Zafar had filed an application with the cybercrime agency and claiming that he deliberately defamed through sharing pictures and videos on social media platforms. Ali labeled this as a ‘pre-planned conspiracy.’
Maham Javed, Fareeha Ayub, Mohsin Syed, and Subha Ghani have also been summoned by the FIA. Iffat Rahim has already recorded her statement and the rest will have their statements recorded next week.
In April last year, Meesha Shafi had alleged on Twitter that fellow musician and actor Zafar had sexually harassed her on multiple occasions.
