Meesha Shafi and Ali Zafar’s legal battle does not seem to be easing up anytime soon.
On Wednesday, Meesha’s lawyer, Nighat Dad, in a tweet shared that Ali Zafar has been served a defamation notice for his comments he made to various media channels regarding his ongoing feud with Shafi.
The legal notice read, “In a statement aired on Hum News on 27th April 2019 (a link of which you have posted on your Twitter account also) you falsely claimed and published that our client is lying and has made false sexual harassment allegations against you just to get fame and recognition so as to get Canadian immigration. In addition to the same, you have also claimed that our client wants to become Malala, thereby implying that Malala also fabricated a false story like Meesha just to gain international recognition and immigration of a foreign country.”
It added, “You have also knowingly and falsely claimed/published that our client’s case against you has been dismissed by the ombudsperson against sexual harassment and that you have been exonerated from all charges of sexual harassment.”
The notice asks Zafar to tender a public apology within 15 days and pay Rs200 crore in “compensation for the loss and damage to our client’s reputation.”
In case you are still confused about the case(s), watch our explainer videos below:
A group of young women from New Delhi claimed that a middle-aged woman asked men at a restaurant to rape them because one of them was wearing a short skirt, following which they confronted her in a mall.
The confrontation was captured in a video which went viral on social media. It shows the group of girls cornering the older woman and threatening to make her “viral” if she did not apologise.
Shivani Gupta who recorded and shared the video, wrote on Facebook, “This middle-aged woman you’ll see in the video addressed seven men at the restaurant to rape us because she felt we deserved it for wearing short clothes and bashing her unsolicited opinion.”
The woman allegedly asked seven men at the resteraunt to “rape” the younger women because of their choice of clothes. Following this, the group of girls followed the woman to a shopping centre where they insisted that she apologise. An argument ensued and the younger women threatened to take the case to the police. However, according to Indian media, Gurgaon Police is yet to receive a complaint.
The middle-aged woman, whose identity has not yet been revealed, refuses to apologise and tries to walk away but the girls refuse to let her go.
After about eight minutes of being followed and taunted, the woman spoke up.
“Hello guys, these ladies want to wear short to short dress to encourage all to see them. Theek hai? Wow, very good. All the ladies wear short dress or be naked to (be) raped.”
She continued, “Hi all, if you are the parents, please control the girls.”
The girls in the video then started mocking the woman for her accent following which she lost her cool and started speaking loudly.
The video has been viewed over a million times and people have lauded the women for taking action against the shaming.
At least four civilians were used as human shields by Indian troops as they launched an 18-hour-long operation in the Pinglan village of Indian Occupied Kashmir (IOK), Reutersreported.
According to the report, by the time the operation ended, one civilian, three freedom fighters and five members of the Indian forces were dead, a row of houses was reduced to rubble and more than 120 villagers had sought treatment for exposure to tear gas, assault and mental trauma.
Eyewitnesses were quoted as saying that soldiers forced at least four villagers to act as human shields. The civilians were sent first into a building where the fighters might be hiding, using a phone to record a video that could be viewed by soldiers present nearby.
Human rights lawyers say such tactics — which are meant to deter local fighters from firing on soldiers carrying out the raids — are highly questionable and could even be a war crime under international law.
But they would not be illegal under Indian law.
“[The] Indian army has never used civilians as human shields,” said military spokesperson Lieutenant Colonel Mohit Vaishnava while speaking to Reuters.
However, he said that during encounters, local people are sometimes asked to mediate between the army and freedom fighters.
HBO’s Game of Thrones, episode 3, The Long Night may have broken records for being the most-watched episode in the series, it is ironically also the lowest ranked of this season. The episode was also the longest in series history at 1 hour, 22 minutes.
Sunday’s big-battle episode, the third of the final season, drew approximately 17.8 million viewers either live on the network, streamed, on-demand or in a rerun that aired later that night, the Nielsen company said.
That made it the week’s most-watched show cable or broadcast and the most-watched one-day event ever in HBO’s four decades of existence, topping the Game of Thrones season eight premiere, which had 17.4 million viewers.
The numbers for Sunday’s episode are likely to grow considerably after delayed and repeat viewings. HBO said 38 million people have now watched the season eight premiere.
The May 19 series finale is expected to break all records.
However, interestingly, the episode scored 78 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. This score, taken from 87 reviews, is the lowest on record since season five, and the third lowest score in the history of the epic fantasy series. 78 percent may be considered to be a respectable score, but GoT episodes get an average 94 percent.
The worst rated Game of Thrones episode of all time was episode six from season five, Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken, which scored 54 percent.
Would we feel less envious and competitive if Instagram didn’t tell us how many Likes a post received? That’s the idea behind Instagram now hiding Like counts. Only the person who posted a photo will be able to see the number of likes it received. Instagram is not testing this at the moment but it will start doing this with users in Canada next week. It is not clear if Instagram plans to test this out in other places. But if it leads to more positive effects on the app, it wouldn’t be surprising to see an expansion of it.
Instagram critics have pointed to it as one aspect that contributes to the negative effects on mental health. Like counts can be a source of social pressure, particularly for younger users. hiding likes count could potentially make Instagram a little healthier.
