Harassment and intimidation: Actress seeks case against co-star

LAHORE: Additional District and Sessions Judge Munir Ahmed has sought comments from the Defence-A station house officer (SHO) for March 15 on a petition filed by an actress seeking a case against a colleague for harassment and threatening behaviour.

Petitioner Noureen Ali submitted that she had worked with Muhammad Imran in a television drama serial four months ago and he had obtained her mobile phone number. She said that Imran began making unwanted calls to her and her mother, after which she submitted a complaint against him to Super Town police. Ali said that Imran then began making abusive phone calls to her and members of her family on their mobile phones. He also threatened to throw acid on her. She said that on February 16, Imran and two unidentified men forced their way into her house and abused her.

She said they fled after she made a hue and cry. She said she then approached Defence-A police station, but the SHO did not pay heed to her complaint. She asked the court to direct the SHO to register a case against Imran for invading her home and threatening her.
