Pakistani actor Saba Qamar has issued a legal notice seeking Rs100 million in damages from a prominent journalist over what she called false and defamatory allegations. The dispute began after journalist Naeem Hanif claimed during a podcast that Qamar once lived in a house in Lahore’s Walton area that was allegedly provided to her by an unnamed individual.
Qamar firmly denied the accusations, sharing a screenshot of the podcast on Instagram and calling the claims “baseless and untrue.” She stated she had never lived in Walton and labelled the remarks as a serious act of character assassination.
Her legal team has since sent a notice to the journalist and the YouTube channel hosting the interview, demanding a public apology and removal of the content within seven days. Failure to comply, the notice warns, will result in legal proceedings.
Qamar urged fans and the entertainment industry to stand up against false allegations and protect their reputations.
