FAISALABAD – Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) leader, Uzma Bukhari on Saturday slapped a man who tried to misbehave with her at the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) power show in Faisalabad.
Quoting sources, reports in local media said the incident occurred as some of the PMLN’s leaders were not allowed to pass through the VIP gate and were stopped by the security personnel deployed for the rally.
As soon as the PML-N Punjab spokesperson hopped out of the vehicle, a young man, who appears to be a party worker, tried to touch the female politician making her react by slapping him.
The irritated Bukhari also took off the party badge from the man’s arm while expressing anger at his coarse act.
