 1. Served Legal Notice by PML-N for Spreading False Rumours about Punjab Kidnapping

The daring actor has come under fire once again as the Punjab government served him a legal notice for spreading “false rumors”. In a post, updated on Facebook late last night, the actor revealed that he had been served a notice for spreading rumors about the recent wave of child kidnappings taking place in the province of Punjab.

In his facebook post on August 3rd Hamza wrote that more than 900 children are kidnapped from Punjab with 400 from Lahore alone.

According to the notice, the number of missing children quoted by Hamza is incorrect and is “less than one third that you (Hamza) reported”.

The notice further added that Hamza’s post, “was exaggerated and it created a sense of insecurity in the general public”. This was not the first time the actor has come into the limelight for his social media updates.

Read what the Mann Mayal actor wrote on August 12th, SAMAA TV reports:

“Blasts spilling innocent blood, Children being kidnapped for their organs, new born babies being kidnapped and replaced by dead babies, working women being randomly stabbed and the assailant said the motive was “for fun”, the dark times getting darker for my beloved Pakistan as the politicians continue to fill their bank accounts.”

Whether it’s about taking a stand for the Ahmadis or speaking against item songs in Pakistani movies, Hamza has never feared speaking up against any topic deemed controversial by the society.

Twitterati seemed to stand by Hamza’s side and totally supported him:
