Strict disciplinary actions have been taken against culprits

KARACHI (Dunya News) - The Airport Security Force (ASF) has refuted claims made against it in circulating social media videos.

According to ASF, the videos in question showed incidents that had already been addressed through strict disciplinary actions.

Those involved faced penalties in accordance with the law, including suspension from service through court martial proceedings.
