KARACHI: Artist Leena Ghani has Wednesday moved the Sindh High Court against singer Ali Zafar claiming Rs500 million in compensation for running a smear campaign against her which she says caused a great deal of mental trauma.
With this defamation suit against the singer, who is already engaged in a legal battle with Meesha Shafi who had claimed he subjected her to sexual harassment, the SHC has served a notice to him for January 25.
She tweeted earlier, using #Metoo hashtag which is reminiscent of the campaign where women began to call out their alleged harassers and means of harassments, that after years of “personal and legal attacks by Mr. Zafar,” she has decided to stand up fight back.
