Veteran actress Fareeha Jabeen has opened up about her private life.
During a recent interview with ‘Subh Ka Samaa Madeha Kay Sath,’ she talked about her decision to remain single after her first divorce, because her daughter, Amar Khan, has always been sensitive about the topic. “I never considered remarrying because of how sensitive Amar has been about the subject.” Amar herself added: “When I was around seven or eight, I once saw a picture of my mom with a makeup artist. I was so upset that I tore up the entire album, even though that person was like a family friend.”
While talking about her former husband and marriage, the actress remarked, “My relationship with my former husband was deeply passionate. After our divorce, I decided to end any further romantic pursuits and focus on my daughter.” Fareeha revealed that she struggled financially while truly to support her child.
“I didn’t have a good education, so I wanted to make sure my daughter Amarhad one. It was hard, and we didn’t have a lot of money. Sometimes we even paid her school fees late. But I worked hard to give her the best life possible.” Jabeen added.Amar Khan graduated as a filmmaker from Beaconhouse National University. She worked in dramas like Bad Gumaan, Ghughi, Dil-e-Gumshuda, Darrar, Breaking News, and Heera Da Hero.

The Lahore High Court on July 25 declared former Prime Minster Imran Khan’s physical remand in 12 cases in the Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) related to May 9 null and void.
The hearing on the petitions against the physical remand in 12 cases of the PTI founder was conducted by Justice Tariq Saleem and Justice Anwar-ul-Haq, two members of the bench. During the hearing, the Prosecutor General of Punjab presented arguments.
During the hearing, Justice Tariq Saleem Sheikh remarked that the “accused could not be forced to undergo a photogrammetric test.”
Earlier, Khan refused to take forensic tests, including polygraph, photogrammetry and voice matching tests, as Lahore police tried to interrogate him in these 12 cases.
In his arguments, the prosecutor stated that the facility for the photogrammetric test is available within the jail and does not require outside transportation.
He emphasized that denying the prosecution the full opportunity to present its case would be unfair, adding that the prosecution is entirely responsible for any failures in the case.
The Prosecutor General noted that Imran Khan created a specific narrative through tweets, and retrieving the phones used for tweeting and WhatsApp messaging is impossible without an investigation.
The court responded by pointing out that judges often receive threats. Justice Anwar-ul-Haq questioned how the accused could be taken anywhere for investigation when he is in jail, making phone recovery impossible.
In the end, the court decided to declare Imran Khan’s physical remand in the 12 cases null and void and also nullify the notification for his video link appearance as the PTI founder.
Different media sources have revealed Britain’s future King, Prince William’s salary. They claim that the British royal earned a whopping $31 million in the year 2023 in his new role as the owner of the Duchy of Cornwall estate, which he inherited when King Charles III became the monarch.
An Annual Integrated Report published by the Duchy of Cornwall shows a distributable surplus of £23.6 million ($30.4 million) for the last financial year 2023-2024.
This amount covers the official, charitable and private expenses of Prince William, Kate Middleton and their three children.
Prince William is a working member of the royal family who doesn’t receive a traditional income. So, his annual expenses are largely covered by the Duchy of Cornwall, an estate established by King Edward III in 1337 to provide funds for the heir to the throne.
The estate is worth over $1 billion, spans 130,000 acres across 23 counties in England and Wales and includes land, farms, houses and other assets to support the heir and his family.
However, the Prince pays income tax on all his earnings from the estate after subtracting household expenses, which have not been specified. When King Charles acceded to the throne in 2022, Prince William became the new Duke of Cornwall and head of the estate.
Resham is a highly talented actress who has ruled the film industry with her charm personality. However, not many are awate of the difficulties she had in her early career.
Recently, Resham appeared as a guest on ‘Mazaq Raat,’ where she talked about how she had to face off against Maria Wasti to earn her first main part on PTV. “I still remember the day I auditioned for my first lead role on PTV. I used to accompany my brother to auditions and had played supporting characters before, but this was my chance to shine. When I arrived at the studios, I saw some big names auditioning for the same role. I saw Maria Wasti there, and she was speaking in perfect English with everyone. At that time, my own Urdu wasn’t as polished, and this made me think I had little chance of getting the role.” Resham narrated.
This role was a turning point in Resham’s career, as she was introduced with her new name (her original name Saima was dropped to avoid confusing her with Saima Khan).
Resham has worked in films like Jeeva, Ghunghat, Pal Do, Sangam, The Legend of Maula Jatt, and Gunjal.
A young man claiming to be in love with a married woman kidnapped and killed the woman’s five-year-old son in the suburbs of Sargodha.
A police report reveals that the suspects kept sending messages to the woman’s husband through an anonymous phone saying, “If you want the child back, divorce your wife,” even though he had murdered the child by then.
However, the police have arrested the suspect after about nine months.
Five-year-old Shahzeb’s father, Rehman Ali, worked as a labourer while the mother was allegedly romantically involved with the suspect Mukarram.
Police investigations reveal that the mother of the five-year-old had an extra-marital affair with Mukarram. It is claimed that she had left her husband and children several times to elope with Mukarram, as they wanted to marry each other. However, Mukrram’s parents were not ready to accept the woman’s condition that the young boy Shahzeb would also stay with them.
Mukarram then abducted the toddler, seeing him as an obstacle to the marriage, but strangled him afterwards and threw the body into a canal.
Mobile data investigations have confirmed that Mukarram turned out to be Shahzeb’s killer.
Shahzeb’s mother was completely unaware of her son’s murder.
The five-year-old was kidnapped in September last year, and the suspect was arrested after nine months of raids and investigation, which, according to the police, was a big success.
Internet speed in Pakistan has greatly slowed down after the government tested a firewall, Geo has said.
The country’s internet-based businesses are in fear. However, internet traffic and speed will return to normal after the trial ends.
An official told Geo that the purpose of the system is to control social media influencers who are involved in spreading fake news in the eyes of the government and to hide or block the content of these influencers.
The government has earmarked more than 30 billion rupees in the development budget to acquire and install the filtering system. These funds were given to the Ministry of Information Technology, but the project is being run by another powerhouse. In this project, the Ministry of Information Technology is no more than a post office.
The firewall has been under construction since January this year, including the procurement and installation of the system. Concerned authorities will be given control of the system in a few weeks.
Several videos of an armed UK cop holding a taser over a man lying face down on the floor are going viral on social media. The cop can be seen striking the man twice while other officers shout at onlookers in Manchester Airport.
Onlookers can be heard shouting in the video as the cops proceed to kick and stamp on the man’s heads. The chaotic scene continued as another person is heard yelling “move back”, while a female officer is seen turning her taser towards other individuals present.
Other voices in the video plead, “Stop kicking people”, and a slew of expletives as multiple officers surround the men on the ground.
Reports suggest the men being beaten by police officers are British Pakistanis.
Videos of two young men who were arrested and then released by the police have also emerged online. Their lawyer has confirmed that Fahir and Ammad were assaulted by the police at the airport in front of their mother who could be seen protecting one of them in the video that went viral. The lawyer claimed that they were arrested by the police and upon their release they themselves went to the hospital for first-aid whereas it was the duty of the police to provide them with medical help. The lawyer stressed that a “complaint has been filed against the police officers that have assaulted both Fahir and Amaad and their elderly mother who was just there as a bystander”.
The same Twitter thread claimed that someone at the airport had hit the trolley of the boys’ mother, and this escalated a fight, adding that the boys were released by the police because of the lack of evidence.
Dawn’s Atika Rehman reports that the incident happened on Wednesday afternoon (July 24).
Greater Manchester Police responded to the viral video by saying that an armed officer had been attacked while attempting to arrest someone, following a fight in Terminal 2 of the airport on Tuesday.
Police issued a statement following the release of the video on social media that four men were arrested at the scene on suspicion of assaulting emergency service workers.
The police said that a female officer suffered from a broken nose, and other officers required hospitalisation.
BBC News quoted Assistant Chief Constable Wasim Chaudhry as saying: “We know that a film of an incident at Manchester Airport that is circulating widely shows an event that is truly shocking, and that people are rightly extremely concerned about. The use of such force in an arrest is an unusual occurrence and one that we understand creates alarm.”
The IOPC said it would assess GMP’s referral “and decide what further action is required”.
A protest was held following the footage release where one of the protesters had told the crowd they were “no longer going to settle” for “police brutality”, the Manchester Evening News reported.
People from the British-Pakistani community expressed their disappointment at the police for mistreating the boys. A criminal lawyer in UK, Attik Malik posted a video of him expressing the disgust he felt after the videos and pronounced, “enough is enough.”

Controversial writer Khalilur Rehman Qamar has claimed that his kidnappers named actors Noman Ijaz and Saba Qamar during his abduction.
In a podcast interview, Qamar recounted his kidnapping, explaining that he hesitated to file a report because the kidnappers had named Noman Ijaz and Saba Qamar.
“I dislike Noman Ijaz, but he is an outstanding actor. Despite my differences with Saba Qamar, I admire her acting. These are not the kind of people who would do such a thing,” Qamar said, implying that the kidnappers were trying to confuse him.
Qamar expressed surprise at the support he received from Indian fans during the ordeal, noting the contrast with the hostility and mockery he faced in Pakistan. “I didn’t know the kidnappers’ motives. I was just worried about my wife and daughters. When they tortured me, I told them to kill me if they wanted,” he added.
He shared that his wife now wants to leave Pakistan due to the distress caused by the incident, but he remains deeply attached to his homeland and has no plans to emigrate.
The kidnapping and robbery took place last week in Lahore. According to the police, a woman called Qamar on his phone and invited him to her house to discuss a drama project. When he arrived, armed men abducted him and carried out the robbery.
The internet had little sympathy for the misogynistic writer, who is known for misbehaving with many women. He has also said that he is waging a war against feminists.
