After a few months of silence from either celebrity, Ali Zafar’s legal team officially lodged their suit against Meesha Shafi. Ali Zafar sued Meesha for PKR 1 billion!

 

As news of Ali Zafar’s lawsuit began to circulate, Meesha and her team still kept mute, until yeterday, a member of Meesha’s legal team, Nighat Dad, spoke out against the lawsuit and Ali Zafar

Earlier in the day, the Sessions Court heard the case for the first time. Nighat began by taking a pretty strong stance regarding the premise of the defamation suit. According to her, Meesha, her team and the women who spoke out against Ali Zafar stood on the right side of history.

The term ‘cheap publicity’ was used by Ali Zafar’s legal team when they appeared in court today for the first time regarding this case.
