FIA summons celebs for allegedly making derogatory remarks against Ali Zafar

20 Aug, 2019

Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has issued summon notices to Pakistani celebrities for allegedly making derogatory remarks about singer Ali Zafar. The list includes Iffat Omar and Ali Gul Pir among many others.

According to a local media report, the singer had submitted an application to the cyber crime wing saying that he is being maligned on social media. He called this a ‘pre-planned conspiracy’ due to which he and his family faced severe mental stress and financial loss.

Zafar has now requested the cybercrime cell to take action against those who have been maligning his name on social media. This all is part of the ongoing defamation case against Meesha Shafi who accused him of sexual harassment.

Last month while appearing before the court, Zafar said that a campaign has been run against him on social media based on lies through fake accounts.
