Defense Minister Khawaja Asif strongly supports intelligence agencies tapping the phones of citizens, stressing that it is necessary at the moment to fight terrorism in the country.
On the other hand, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Omar Ayub criticized tapping citizens’ mobile phones.
“We are in the midst of war against terrorism. I will support phone tapping in the current situation,” the Defense Minister told Arab News.
“When Imran Khan was on good terms with the establishment, every legitimate and illegitimate thing seemed acceptable to him. Today, his followers find the same thing hateful,” Khawaja Asif pointed out.
Bollywood superstar Salman Khan once proposed to A-lister Juhi Chawla early in their careers, he revealed in a recent interview.
Salman Khan’s proposal was declined by Juhi Chawla’s father, who felt Salman was not established enough in his career at the time.
Salman, now 58, has been a major figure in the Indian film industry for over thirty years and is still one of its most eligible bachelors.
During a candid discussion about his personal life, Salman Khan shared his early admiration for Juhi Chawla, describing her as “innocent-looking,” which deeply charmed him.
Juhi confirmed that Salman had approached her for marriage when she was focused on her career. She admitted she didn’t know him well back then, as he wasn’t as popular as he later became. Her career ambitions led her to decline his proposal.
Salman Khan’s romantic history includes high-profile relationships with several Bollywood actresses, like Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Katrina Kaif, making this revelation a rare look into his less-publicized personal life.
In an interview with Aaj News, President of the Awami National Party Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Mian Iftikhar Hussain sounded alarm bells over the precarious security situation in KP province, saying, “In southern districts, terrorists rule once the sun goes down.”
He stressed that the government has no writ in the areas. “Police hide in their stations in the evening. They [militants] come out openly on the roads as the sun goes down and prove to people that they’re the ones ruling.”
The ANP leader stressed that the security environment of the province was deteriorating with increasing cases of target killings, extortion, and religious extremism.
“They do whatever they want to do at night. As the sun rises, the writ of state comes back,” criticised Hussain.
A woman was beaten to death by her in-laws when she took a long time to cook food in Kot Sultan village Korywali, Layyah, reports Dawn.
Parveen Bibi’s husband, Muhammad Yusuf, along with his brothers Muhammad Ejaz, Muhammad Younis, and Nadar, allegedly assaulted her for the delay in the preparation of food.
Local police in Kot Sultan have registered a murder case on the complaint of Abdul Majeed, the uncle of the victim, Parveen.
FIR states that the suspects severely beat Parveen Bibi with sticks until she fell unconscious. Seeing the gravity of injuries, she was shifted from the tehsil headquarters hospital to the district headquarters hospital and then to Nishtar Hospital in Multan, where she succumbed to her injuries.
Complainant Majeed said an autopsy was conducted after her death.
Layyah District Police Officer Asadur Rehman claimed that the suspects would be arrested, saying violence against women will not be tolerated and a special team has been formed to investigate the case.
Fashion ace Hassan Sheheryar Yasin, also known as HSY, recently criticized celebrities for undergoing beauty procedures that make them look the same.
In a podcast with actor-host Ahmad Ali Butt called ‘Excuse Me,’ HSY was asked what he didn’t like. “Fakeness. People in our industry are so fake – they would say something to your face and then talk behind your back. The truth always comes out, and the person who said it ends up looking foolish,” HSY replied immediately.
He then said that Pakistanis are hypocrites.
Talking about the trend of cosmetic procedures, HSY noted, “These days, men or women, everyone is just pretty, with poufy hair and the same kind of beard. Everyone has their jawlines chiseled, chins fixed, nose jobs done, and eyebrows lifted. Everyone has the same face, with fillers.”
“At this point, everyone looks the same,” he criticized. “All of them say, ‘I went to Dubai or Turkey, and it’s about the weather there’. Come on! We all know what procedures you are getting, so I don’t find that sexy. It’s about individuality. No doubt they are all pretty but not sexy; it’s an attitude,” he explained.
HSY named Mehwish Hayat and Ayesha Omer as some of the most appealing women in the industry, praising their unique personalities.
An anti-terrorism court has turned down the bail petition of incarcerated former Prime Minister Imran Khan in three cases related to the May 9 violent protests, GEO News reported on Tuesday.
Judge Khalid Arshad of Lahore ATC announced the reserved verdict after hearing Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) founder bail pleas in the May 9 violent protest cases.
The riots occurred last year after Imran Khan was arrested in a corruption case.
Several PTI supporters attacked multiple state buildings, including Jinnah House Lahore and GHQ Pakistan Army Rawalpindi.
The incarcerated former Prime Minister was ousted from office through a no-confidence motion in April 2022, and currently, he is in Adiala jail facing corruption and terrorism cases.
Imran Khan also secured relief in multiple cases, including a £190 million reference and the Toshakhan case. However, he will remain behind bars due to his conviction in the Iddat case.

The military’s media wing has stated that a sanitisation operation was underway to eliminate any remaining militants in the area.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and the Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Asim Munir attended the Captain’s funeral on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, in South Waziristan, three soldiers lost their lives, and 12 others were injured in a militant attack in the district.
A police officer and his three minor nephews lost their lives in Lakki Marwat district.

Gory grottos with demons impaling sinners on stakes and people drowning in a pool of blood are not part of your average theme park experience.
But at Hell’s Museum in Singapore, the main attraction at the Haw Par Villa Park, visitors are welcomed to a kitschy, air-conditioned hell on Earth.
Inside the sprawling park complex, which features over 1,000 statues and dioramas showcasing Asian culture, faiths, and philosophy, Hell’s Museum exhibits various religious views on the afterlife.
Visitors are encouraged to learn about the 10 Courts of Hell through intense depictions of punishments for earthly sins.
At court number two, for instance, corruption gets you frozen in ice, while rapists at court Seven are thrown in boiling oil.
The 10 Courts of Hell are “the result of the mixing of four different religions and philosophies: Buddhism, Taoism, Hinduism, Confucianism”, said Eisen Teo, the chief curator of Hell’s Museum in the multicultural city-state.
“The sculptures and dioramas are a visual dissection of many classics, stories and moral values that many Singaporeans have and are familiar with,” Teo said.
Visitor Gin Goldberg told AFP she wasn’t so surprised to learn that many religions had differing opinions on the afterlife.
“One person’s heaven would be another person’s hell,” the American said.
Party in hell
The odd park stands apart from gleaming Singapore’s mainstream tourist attractions such as the luxury shops of Marina Bay Sands or the towering “supertrees” of Gardens by the Bay.
Haw Par Villa was built in 1937 by entrepreneur Aw Boon Haw, known for co-developing Asia’s much-loved Tiger Balm pain relief rub.
While fondly remembered by older generations, the park has had trouble attracting the Gen Z crowd and younger millenials, according to Journeys, the firm that manages the park.
To broaden appeal, it has held several rave parties and other private events — but not too near to religious exhibits.
“After they came here (for the parties) they fell in love with the quirky, eccentric park, with these cool sculptures. Fell in love with them and they keep doing repeat visits,” said Savita Kashyap, Journeys’ executive director.
While Haw Par Villa isn’t just about the afterlife, and raves — it also displays scenes from Chinese folklore such as “Romance of the Three Kingdoms” — its hellish attraction remains the top draw.
But not for all.
While leaving, one Filipina visitor told AFP that she won’t be returning anytime soon.
