ISLAMABAD: The Federal Investigation Agency’s (FIA) cybercrime wing has dropped the defamation charges against famous TV host Nadia Khan.
PPP leader Sharmila Faruqui has filed a defamation case against Nadia Khan for mocking her mother’s makeup and the FIA’s cybercrime wing was probing the matter.
FIA’s Sindh cybercrime wing head Imran Riaz has shared a video on his official Instagram handle to explain that Nadia has been cleared of the defamation case filed by Faruqui.
“I would like to discuss the case filed by PPP MPA Sharmila Faruqui against actress Nadia Khan, claiming that she [Nadia] tried to defame the former’s mother,” Riaz said in the video.
The FIA official said that the 40-minute video shot by Nadia on Pakistani actress Saboor Ali’s wedding, which she later uploaded on her YouTube channel, has been closely inspected by his team.
“We didn’t find any such content that proves that Nadia filmed the video with deliberate intentions to disrepute Anisa,” Riaz said.
He added that “as far as sarcasm or facial expressions are concerned, the law is silent on this, therefore, Nadia has been cleared in this inquiry and the investigation has been closed.”
