KARACHI (Dunya News) – Pakistani artist Meesha Shafi on Saturday has expressed dissatisfaction over session court judge hearing the defamation suit filed by singer Ali Zafar.
According to details, the judge has reserved the verdict over Meesha’s plea that will be announced on May 8.
Earlier, Meesha had moved Supreme Court and challenged Lahore High Court (LHC) directive to conclude the defamation suit within three months.
Meesha Shafi had, in April, tweeted she was sexually harassed by colleague and fellow singer, Ali Zafar. “If this can happen to someone like me, an established artist, then it can happen to any young woman hoping to break into the industry and that concerns me gravely,” she said.
The singer/actor categorically denied the allegations levelled against him and announced to take legal action.
Zafar in his official statement said he "is the father of a young girl and a young boy, a husband to a wife and a son to a mother. I am a man that has stood up for myself, my family, my colleagues and friends countless times in the face of slander, defamation and general unkindness.”
