Lahore High Court Conditionally Suspends Damages Against Meesha Shafi

The Lahore High Court has conditionally suspended a decision imposing Rs5 million in damages on singer Meesha Shafi for defamation. The case was brought by Ali Zafar, who won the appeal against her.

Justice Ahmad Nadeem Arshad dismissed the request to completely suspend the trial court’s verdict but noted that Meesha Shafi must refrain from repeating allegations of sexual harassment as part of the ruling. He also directed Meesha Shafi to deposit half of the penalty amount and submit a surety bond for the remaining sum.

The High Court issued notice to Ali Zafar, requesting his response to the proceedings. The case stems from an earlier session court decision in favor of Ali Zafar, ordering Meesha Shafi to pay Rs5 million in damages.
