Former Caretaker Minister for Information and Parliamentary Affairs Murtaza Solangi took to Twitter to criticise Imran Khan’s recent interview with journalist Mehdi Hasan, calling it a lie.
“The biggest lie is that the disgraced and sacked former PM is in solitary confinement. Far from it,” wrote the ex-caretaker minister.
He said, “Imran is staying in a complex of 7 rooms with access to all of them. Yes, he doesn’t have an AC but does have a room cooler. He can walk in the corridor whenever he wants. He is provided with a Bike Machine to keep him fit.”
Solangi stated that the former Prime Minister “Gets three meals cooked by a special cook for him. Each meal is inspected by the doctor who also checks him three times a day. He also has a TV and a Refrigerator in his room and is also provided books.”
Ali Noor has finally spoken up about the sexual harassment allegations levelled against him. The singer said that the two girls who accused him of sexual harassment were not known to anyone, adding that they had some hidden reasons for making the accusations. He insists that their claims are untrue.
In a recent appearance on Ahmed Ali Butt’s podcast, he revealed that the woman named Ayesha bint Rashid, who accused him, was dealing with severe depression and had even contemplated suicide. He shared that her life was saved. He said that Ayesha was contacted from his wife’s mobile instead of his own while the other woman was Maha Kazmi and she was also unknown.
The lead singer of Noori band described the allegations of sexual harassment by the two women as a drama. “I never harassed any woman while every girl felt safe with me. We have been working in a very pleasant mood and this may sound wrong to some people but I have never harassed any woman.” He went on to say, “Because of their allegations, my career was ruined. No one wanted to work with me, and I stopped getting job opportunities. During concerts, everyone started calling me a sexual predator.” Adding that he was surprised to see people’s behaviour, he said, “These are the same people who, when I was sick, they had prayed for me in this difficult time, I came back only because of their prayers. Then I realized why it is said, ‘Watu’iz mun tashaa’ and ‘waltuzil mun tashaa’, why both honor and humiliation have been kept together.”
The Manwa Re singer said that the incident did not affect his family but he has said “goodbye” to the industry. “Now we have nothing to do with any TV channel or music house.” Ali Noor was accused of sexual harassment by journalist Ayesha bint Rashid in February 2022 and then by singer Maha Kazmi in April 2023.
Ali Noor rejected the allegations of both women. He had also sent a legal notice to singer Maha Kazmi.
