In a surprising turn of events, the viral video where a Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) activist can be seen torturing stage actor and Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) member Tahir Anjum has been dubbed as fake, Police revealed Friday.
The investigation revealed, the whole scene was staged outside the Punjab Assembly a few days ago for personal gain, it said.
The incident involves Aneela Riaz, a PTI activist, and PML-N’s Cultural Wing President Tahir Anjum, who orchestrated the situation to serve their personal interests.
The incident was fabricated by both political workers and were in contact over mobile phone.
Closed circuit television footage shows Aneela arriving at Tahir Anjum’s residence, and the two are seen conspiring together prior to the incident.
Reports say that she was later seen arriving at the Punjab Assembly in a rickshaw, further indicating their planned collaboration.
The police have detailed that mobile phone records and CCTV footage corroborate the connections between Riaz and Anjum, exposing their coordinated effort.
Police claim that Aneela Riaz had aspirations for a reserved PTI seat, while Anjum sought to enhance his standing within the PML-N.
Moreover, the case couldn’t be registered as Tahir Anjum had submitted a statement expressing his willingness to forgive Aneela Riaz.
The incident occurred on Wednesday when Anjum was reportedly passing by the hunger strike camp of the Imran Khan-led party outside the provincial assembly, according to the FIR.
