Several women accuse Zafar of harassment

After famous singer Meesha Shafi, several other women have accused actor Ali Zafar of sexual harassment.

One such individual is Humna Raza, a Pakistani blogger who writes about spreading positivity, also shared how a fan- moment with Ali did not quite turn out to be what she had expected.

“I was at an event and I saw Ali Zafar there. I was very excited so I decided to get a selfie with him,” she tweeted. “He didn’t say anything, but smirked and opened his arms that I took as a yes. I stood next to him and felt his hand go up the side of my waist. I felt it and I knew what happened.”

Humna Raza added that she had misunderstood Ali back then but when she heard about Meesha Shafi’s allegations, she knew hers was a case of harassment.

Another Twitter user, Leena Ghani also gained some courage to speak up on the matter once Meesha broke her silence. In a tweet, Leena penned, “In the many years I have known Ali, he has, on many occasions, crossed boundaries of what is appropriate behaviour between friends.”

She said: “The memories of the times where Ali thought he could get away by saying vulgar things to me still disgusts me.”

University student Maham Javaid took to Twitter explaining how Ali once tried to harass her cousin. She mentioned that they even thought of reporting him but since he is a celebrity, no one would have believed them.
