[Update]: Arrested yesterday, the madrasa cleric has finally confessed to sexually assaulting the teenage student. He agreed to the charges and tells the police that the video statement he issued was because he did not want to be kicked out from the madrasa.

The mufti and his sons were arrested by tracking their mobile phones.

Child Molester Madrasa Cleric Arrested After Social Media Uproar

Madrasa cleric who was exposed when the victim secretly shot the video of harassment, was finally arrested. Mufti Azizur Rehman was arrested from Mianwali where he had ran off when the police was out to capture him. Today, he was arrested in a raid. The raid was led by Lahore Model Town CIA Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Hasnain Haider.

They are now bringing him back to Lahore where he will be prosecuted. IGP Punjab said in a tweet that they aim to make the society safer for the children from the child molesters.

Let’s see how the court rules the case.



[June 17, 2021]:

Madrasa, literally, a place of teaching (in general), is now only used to refer to a place of religious teaching. Yet, in such a place, we come across numerous incidents relating to molestations, rapes, and whatnot. Unfortunately, there is no accountability when it comes to madrasa cleric(s).

Madrasa witnesses molestation incident

In the recent incident, a student leaked the video exposing Mufti Azizur Rehman. The accused is a seventy-year-old religious cleric and he is also the Vice Ameer of Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam. He was sexually assaulting a teenage boy, enrolled in the madrasa. The video became viral two days ago.

Alongside that leaked video, the victim shared a message claiming that he is hiding because the molester’s sons have threatened to kill him. The video shows the survivor to be in utter distress.

But of course, while even just the unproven allegation of blasphemy can lead to kill fatwas, the documented molester only received a termination letter. The madrasa he worked at issued a letter saying that he has been fired effective 3rd June 2021. They came to this decision after the committee met and seeing the leaked video. At the end of the letter, they ordered him to immediately leave the premises.

He has also been suspended from his political responsibilities.

Mufti Azizur Rehman shares his story

As the whole scene plays out, Mufti Azizur Rehman decided to share his point as well. He, in fact, categorically denied his role in the video. Hoping to paint himself as pious, he said that this was a conspiracy against him. His argument was that he wasn’t even moving that much. Hence, clearly, he was drugged by the “character-less” boy.

Plus, he went on to say that it has been two weeks but my accuser is in hiding. Trying to use it to his advantage, he said that it is never the wronged who runs.

Well, hello mister, if the boy did not run, your son would have killed him for exposing you!

According to Punjab Police, they cannot carry out any investigation unless a report is filed. First and foremost, why is it that we are forcing out a threatened person to come and file a report? Also, why are we not making the world safe that the victim approach the authorities without fearing for their lives? It is high time authorities started looking at each issue independently. Why? because, at most times, there are external factors that make it difficult for the issue to be handled in the usual way.

Hajra Yamin’s Latest Photo Shoot Sparks Controversy

Hajra Yamin, the leading actress of Pinky Memsaab, has recently instigated a controversy. The cause? A little black dress!

The Latest Shoot

For reasons not known to us yet, Hajra Yamin got a black and white shoot done of herself. In that, the star is wearing a mid-length black dress, slightly above her knees. The dress is also not overly scandalous or shocking- it’s just a normal black dress! 

The actress is also in minimal makeup with glossy lips that only adds to the fuss-free feel of the shoot. What we love the most is her flaunting her natural hair! She’s got a beautiful mane of thick, healthy and wavy hair and she knows how to use them as an accessory.

The Photos

Here are the three photos uploaded so far as part of this shoot. The three photos are uniformly black and white and in the same dress. However, another similarity they all share is that all have comments disabled.

Netizens Come Through

Funnily enough, a little while after she posted a picture, one person commented this and it couldn’t be more true. Within seconds, a barrage of comments ranging from praying for her to get guidance to shaming her for living in Pakistan came through.

The comments are never-ending, harsh and simply unnecessary however, they are sandwiched between good ones too. Taking the bad with the good, Hajra Yamin?

Here are some of the comments levied towards her:

Selective Rage

For people to treat a black dress as the ultimate hallmark of sin and evil is surprising. As a country that is going through one of the worst sexual violence rates, people are directing their rage to women and their clothing. It’s surprising how social media rage from netizens was controlled in the recent event of a religious cleric sexually assaulting his student.

Are clothes more deadly than assaults? It appears many netizens would answer yes to that.

About Hajra Yamin

Hajra Yamin is a notable Pakistani actress who has made her mark in several Urdu television serials. She made her film debut with a remarkable supporting role in Maan Jao Na and later bagged a leading role in none other than Pinky Memsaab.

Biryani Restaurant Owner Booked For Beating Customer In Karachi

We love eating food, and we love dining out but ever since COVID lockdown was imposed only very limited options were available. Now that we are witnessing some relaxation in dining out, any place that is open and affordable is the highlight of everyone’s life. The biryani restaurant in Liaquatabad, Karachi, was one such place.

Liaquatabad Biryani Restaurant

However, the staff at the restaurant beat up the customer when he went to the counter to ask for his money back. Apparently, the customer had been waiting for a long time and he just did not want to continue much further. Probably exhausted by the number of customers or the fact that a canceled order would reflect in the staff’s salary, the worker beat the customer up.

Later when the divisional officer visited the scene, there was no trace of any weapon or stolen items being implicated on the injured citizens.

The event happened on Friday but it took the police some time to take notice of it. In fact, it was after the CCTV footage went public. After that, the police booked the restaurant owner. This goes to indicate that the staff did this on the indication of the owner. The owner has run away and is in hiding so the police were not able to take him into custody.

Another violent incident in Karachi

There is yet another horrible incident in Karachi. Apparently, the police opened fire and injured two citizens. An internal inquiry by the police led to the arrest of four personnel. These policemen, according to the department, opened fire on alleged burglars when they did not stop when being asked to.

It seems that the unpredictable weather is getting to the Karachiites. The uncertainty of the Karachi rains is keeping everyone agitated. Hopefully, everything will work out once it rains and the consequences are not as dire as last year.

Time out with Ahsan Khan is going on in full swing, but it still manages to raise some questions now and then. Most of the time, it is associated with the guests who give their remarks to share their lives and perspectives about certain things.

Latest Guest On Time Out 

The latest guest on the show was none other than the two industry siblings who shared the couch; Humaima Malik & Feroze Khan.

Humaima’s Performance Act

While Feroze managed to gain the viewers’ attention with his remarks on the second marriage, Humaima caught some weird eyes on her dance in the show.

In a segment where they both had to answer some questions and give a small performance on a song, Humaima danced. Her dance caught the eyes of the netizens who are now taking to social media to leave some negative remarks. Here is a clip from the show.

Netizen’s Respond

The moral brigade took to social media to give some remarks on the situation. While some made fun of the song being played, others made sure to attack the celebrities with their opinions.

The comment section was full of people who often try to force their opinion on others.

At the same time, some judged the decision of Feroze Khan about leaving the industry and embarking on the journey of Deen.

While it was all in fun and no harm, our public really does not know when to let go. Celebrities are entitled to their opinion and actions just like anyone else. However, in our society, we tend to think of them as public property. This behavior leads to us micro-managing our celebrities and, in turn, get offended if they do not follow.

2. It’s Illegal to Run Out of Gas on the German Autobhan

The German Autobhan is notorious for having dynamic speed limits. You can travel more than 100 miles per hour in it! That is why Germans believe that you have the power to keep your car properly gassed up. Hence, if you run out of gas, it’s your own fault. You pay for it.

3. It’s Illegal to Feed Pigeons in Venice

Tourists loved feeding the pigeons. As a result, the cleanup from the birds used to cost each citizen €275 per year. Now, the tables are turned. If you’re caught feeding the pigeons, you could get fined up to €700.

4. Don’t Wear Your Winnie the Pooh T-Shirt in Poland

The New Auto Policy Might Increase Local Market Competition

While we wait, the auto policy in Pakistan is at the final stage. It is set to be deployed and implemented soon. In July, the current standing policy would end and it would be time for a new one. According to sources, it has quite a lot of fruit to offer to the public. Despite there being a shortage of chips globally, the development is steady.

Many new brands have started to enter Pakistan now. Before it was just a handful of them. Now, we see brands like Changan, Proton as well as many Hyundai. The brands themselves are not too young and have a base built now. In light of this, a new auto policy sounds like quite a piece of good news to us.

Auto Policy For Pakistan

Recently, a meeting was held by many ministers. One of them was the finance minister as well as the industries and production one. The meeting was held to decide and finalise the new auto policy. As we already know, PM Imran Khan has decided to lower prices for cars. These cars are specific to those under 800cc. This means that many commercial car prices are set to drop by a big margin.

This comes as good news to us because these cars will become highly affordable. The common person should be able to purchase these vehicles and thus the dream comes. Even the GST on local vehicles is said to be reduced from 17% to 12%. This is a considerable deduction and can help a lot of people buy cars. Additionally, the new policy supports auto parts for 2 and 3 wheel vehicles too.

Additional News

This new auto policy has something else too. It has regulations and support for electric vehicles in Pakistan too. Electric cars are something that is becoming common day by day. Many people want to be a part of the new age of electricity. After the war between Edison and Westinghouse (Let us not forget the wild card, Tesla), this is the new electric age.

So, if you are someone who wishes to buy an electric car, it might be easier because of the auto policy. Additionally, this new policy is sure to increase a lot of competition in the local market. When the 800 and less CC cars finally appear, there will be a lot of options. To accommodate that, the competition will rise. If many people go for one type, the other might reduce prices even more.

Hoping For An Affordable Car

We hope that this new policy accommodates a lot of vehicles under it. It is always fun to read about new developments in the country. Seeing this one brings light to many people’s faces. After many years of expensive vehicles, they are finally getting affordable ones. Plus, the vehicles themselves have such impressive features, one would want to buy them.

Christiano Ronaldo Becomes First Person To Cross 300M Followers

Christiano Ronaldo has made history with the number of Instagram followers he has amassed. 

Reaching The Highest Number of Followers

The Juventus star was the first person globally to reach the 200 million mark on Instagram, leaving many shocked. However, today, he has broken his own record after some mere months by reaching 300 million on the same platform.

Christiano Ronaldo is not less than a legend in his field and his following comes as no surprise.

The Victories Keep Rolling In

Earlier this week, Portugal captain Ronaldo also made European Championships history. He became the all-time top scorer in the summer tournament after he shattered the record of 10th and 11th finals goals in the opening Euro 2020 match against Hungary.

Ronaldo was playing his record fifth European Championship in the past week which is when he shattered the records. In his signature style, he overtook the previous mark of nine goals set by France’s Michel Platini in Euro’s all-time leading scorer list. The footballer clearly isn’t slowing down in the near future.

In the entire list of current active players, only one player comes close to Ronaldo. Only France’s forward Antoine Griezmann comes near to the five-time Ballon d’Or winner because he has scored six goals in the seven matches played at Euros.

What Can Be Next?

Ronaldo can potentially be moving onto 106 international goals. He is only three shy of footballing immortality which has previously only been held by Iranian striker Ali Daei’s all-time record international goals tally of 109.

Ronaldo’s Instagram is also heavily influential. With 300 million followers at his beck and call, all mega-companies are striving to get the footballer on board. A single post by him can reach 300 million at once— can there be a greater, more golden opportunity for companies?

The Influencer’s Influencer

Recently, for the same tournament that Ronaldo was breaking records in, a press conference was held. Normally there are sponsors for each tournament whose items are placed at the players’ disposal. As such, coke bottles were on the table.

Ronaldo put the Coke bottles aside and put water in front, suggesting his fans and others to drink water instead. This caused one of the heaviest losses for Coke in its decades-long history, causing the company to lose $4bn at once. It’s fascinating how he did not have to think once about what this could mean for him, he’s untouchable and invincible and he knows it!

Bitcoin Bust Could Finally Bring Down GPU Prices

Image Source: pcmag.com

There have been certain drawbacks in the technological world these days. Due to the global chip shortage, the prices of many electronics have gone up. Additionally, while it’s not a drawback, cryptocurrency has had an impact on GPU prices. Due to the high demand in the mining of crypto, many GPUs have been sold. It is estimated that the GPU selling number, for mining, was more than 700,000.

Imagine this many graphics cards being used for mining cryptocurrency. One of the most widely used ones was the RTX-3080. It is still quite an impressive card and one of the best ones out there today. However, its price went sky-high along with other cards, when crypto hit a high note.

gpu prices going down with crypto

GPU Prices Falling

In recent months, crypto has seen a lot of ups and downs. The last month was especially difficult for investors because of the dip. Tesla decided to halt payments using crypto. This was because crypto miners were not using clean energy for mining. Until they do, the payments remain halted. However, this caused a massive rift in the crypto world and it might affect GPU prices.

Since the demand for the GPUs might fall due to the bitcoin bust, the prices can come down. PC builders can finally make their own gaming or workstations in peace. You don’t have to worry about building a PC and then waiting for a graphics card because the prices are too high. However, we would still suggest that you wait and see how this situation unfolds.

Buying A GPU

A lot of places have been cracking down on bitcoin trading. However, it must be understood that one cannot stop something so widespread. Crypto may have started small but now it has become widely popular. We recommend that you read about the technicalities that involve crypto. It is never harmful to increase your knowledge on a subject.

Let us hope that the GPU prices come down by a notch and people are able to build a PC.  However, it must be noted that the global chip shortage still rages on. While the prices may drop, they may not drop everywhere or on all GPUs. THe RTX-3080 is certainly expected to take a hit but let’s hope the 10 and 20 series do too.

Nida Yasir Shares A Horrifying Incident Of Getting Robbed In Turkey

Image Source: YouTube

Nida Yasir just shared how her Turkey trip was like a coin: there were two sides to it! At one end, she experienced the most beautiful sights and enjoyed a lot. On the other end, she lost very precious things. Here’s what happened and what you should never do

Rumours Came True

Before Nida Yasir ventured to Turkey, she was told by many that a lot of stealing happens there. Streets are full of pick-pockets who take a second to take out your valuables from your bags.

nida yasir theft turkey

Having travelled through many cities and towns, when she reached Istanbul she was extremely cautious. In order to avoid all the stealing she was told about, she left all her valuables in her hotel room.

Was It Her Own Fault?

Nida Yasir’s strategy to deal with the stealing on the streets was to forget that stealing can happen inside hotels too. She put her “3 rings and a pendant” all made of diamond, in a pouch. Then she hid that pouch in a bag. Now here’s the best part: she did not put that bag in a locker. 

nida yasir theft turkey

She let that bag remain inside the hotel room in plain sight because she did not think anyone would steal it from here. Nida Yasir, being the traveller she claims herself to be, didn’t know that room cleaners come in absence of tourists?

When Did She Find Out?

Another thing that Nida Yasir did that made it worse for her was that she checked the pouch with such valuable things only after 3 days. Any other person would be checking it 24/7 so you can give a closer time estimate in case it is lost.

When you check it after 3 days, you do not know whether it was stolen on day 1, 2 or 3. How can you possibly track the thief? Regardless, she tried her best to get the police involved. Spent the entire night in a Turkey police station and registered an FIR too.

Must Be A Huge First Paycheck

Usually, people’s first paychecks are just enough to treat family and friends to a good place. For others, the first paycheck is enough to get you two things from Zara. However, we wonder what Nida Yasir’s first job was because her first paycheck afforded her multiple diamond jewellery pieces.

Nida Yasir kept stressing it was first paycheck buys and hence, very valuable. We hope she’s able to find the things.

Muneeb Butt Shares His Thoughts On Dating & Relationships

Muneeb Butt shared his thoughts on the ‘girlfriend/boyfriend’ relationship settings. He’s honest, to the point, and has the whole reasoning behind his thoughts.

Involve Your Family ASAP

According to Muneeb Butt, he can never understand why couples remain in the girlfriend-boyfriend stage. He believes, if you like a girl, involve your family right then and there. If you know you like her/him, send their house a rishta and do something like baat pakki or engagement.

This, according to Muneeb Butt, is ‘rishta pakka karna’. He implies that your relationship is not built on solid grounds unless and until you’ve done these things.

Don’t Waste Your Time

He also believes that the whole girlfriend-boyfriend setting is simply wasting time. He adds that as a couple like that, you’re doing everything yet with no confirmation or guarantee.

However, is there ever any confirmation for a life together with a baat pakki or engagement or are those settings unbreakable?

It’s Humiliating

Muneeb Butt also adds that he finds the terms ‘girlfriend-boyfriend’ humiliating. “If someone said he’s my boyfriend, I wouldn’t like it at all”, said Butt.

Taking this further, he even gave an anecdotal example of him and Aiman Khan’s relationship. He said we never prolonged it or wasted time, we were never girlfriend or boyfriend.

Netizens Have A Lot To Say

Netizens also found these words from Muneeb Butt rather nonsensical and started refuting all his arguments. Here’s what people are not buying:

What’s With Problematic Opinions?

Muneeb Butt has the right to his opinion. He really does! However, when will celebrities understand the amount of influence their words have? These interviews aren’t dining-room talks that stay within families, they reach thousands. For Muneeb Butt to say that if you like a girl, being a guy you should not wait around to become ‘financially independent etc’. Just send the rishta! Granted, but then what will the two do with no source of income?

Muneeb Butt also speaks from a place of privilege when he puts it so easy to send the rishta. Families rarely accept their children’s own choices, and there are many other issues to consider.

No Unbreakable Bonds

Jumping right into ‘official’ statuses like baat pakki or engagement is also not any better. They can also not work out and for women, in our society, having broken engagements is invalid for marriage.

New Study Shows Long Term Loss Of Brain Tissue Due To Coronavirus

New Study Shows Long Term Loss Of Brain Tissue Due To Coronavirus
Image source: www.aa.com.tr

Recent research on the novel coronavirus has shown that the virus can cause irreversible brain damage and can potentially affect the nervous system. This includes a spectrum of symptoms discovered by scientists, including headaches, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and loss of taste and smell. Researchers also now have evidence of the novel coronavirus damaging the heart, creating blood clots, and causing gastrointestinal issues.

Neurological Symptoms 

Earlier this year, different studies showed that younger adults who contracted the infection were prone to more neurological symptoms. These symptoms include mental confusion, headaches, dizziness, uncoordinated muscle movements, seizures, and a rise in the risk of stroke.

However, a recent study shows that SARS-CoV-2 can directly infect the nervous system. Scientists have begun to unravel some of the virus’s effects on brain cells.

Moreover, neurological symptoms can range from headaches and loss of taste and smell to impaired consciousness, delirium, strokes, and cerebral hemorrhage.

Doctor’s Statements 

According to Dr. Scott Gottlieb, “In short, the study suggests that there could be some long-term loss of brain tissue from Covid, and that would have some long-term consequences.”

Dr. Govindrajan Padmanaban, President of India’s National Academy of Science and Former Director of Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, had said,

“Covid-19 can infect many organs including the brain, although many get cured independently in the milder states. In serious cases, such as after recovery from ICUs, there can be concerns about changes in memory, etc. The practice of Yoga can help.”

According to the researchers, the virus can infect neurons and use the neuronal cell machinery to replicate. Replication is a process through which the viral load increases in the body. The virus appears to facilitate its replication by boosting the metabolism of infected cells. As a result, the neighboring, uninfected neurons die due to reduced oxygen supply, leading to irreversible tissue damage in the brain.

The story of vengeance and domestic violence comes to an end. The last episode of Qayamat aired on 16th June and within a day it gathered 5.1 million views. After watching it, people just couldn’t stop praising Ahsan Khan and his acting skills for it.

Loving the antagonist

Usually, people say that it is natural if the audience starts hating you after you play an evil role. However, recent events have shown us that it is not usually the case. Or maybe the audience has now started seeing characters as characters. They do not confuse them with the actors anymore. Or could it be that we now are able to relate to antagonists of the story more because they seem more real, instead of the mazloom protagonists? Remember Sabaat? Miral was the more popular character compared to Anaya.

Qayamat – Ahsan Khan

Similar is the case with Qayamat where people had been appreciating Ahsan Khan throughout its run. And they just couldn’t contain themselves when in the last episode Rashid (Ahsan Khan) realized the horrors he had committed.

Twitter raged with appreciation tweets. Netizens, it is clear, are just in love with Ahsan Khan all over again. He ensures that not only are his issues igniting tough discussions that people hope to avoid but do it in the most talented way possible.

Netizens on Qayamat

Not every actor is able to portray the “angry, funny and turn-over-a-new-leaf sides” as seamlessly as the Qayamat actor did.

The entire series was amazing but the last episode gathered more love.

“An emotional rollercoaster” ride; this might just be the most accurate description.

Netizens even said that Ahsan Khan should not be compared locally. If compared, it should be with big international stars.

Did you find it Oscar-worthy, this scene?

The love overflowed on Twitter for the actor.

Let’s just say that after the exemplary acting in Udaari, he did not disappoint us. He made sure that he continues giving us amazing works. Hopefully, his next project will be just as diverse.

He also acknowledges that there are thousands of businesses run on making people lose weight. There are medicines too but he is helping people out for free.

What does he want in return? He wants Pakistanis to be fit, to be positive and most importantly, value good food. 

Tip No. 1 – Have A Goal

One of the tips Iqrar Ul Hassan gives to lose weight is to have a goal. He mentions how Ramadan is the goal in mind for him each year. This is because in Ramadan he has to come on TV every day and wear colourful clothes. Usually he only wears black.

Tip No. 3 – Call Adnan Siddique To Your Home

The host also got candid about how the famous actor Adnan Siddique helped him lose weight. Hassan mentioned that Siddique came to his home one day and Hassan casually asked him a question. How do you stay so fit without fail? Help me lose a little weight?

In response, Siddique went to Hassan’s kitchen, helped the chef make a phulka. Then tore the top part of it and gave it to Hassan to eat. The top part of the phulka has the least calories!

Tip No. 4- Exercise Daily

Another thing he has made a part of his life is exercising or walking daily, without fail, for at least 40 minutes. He urges people to make this a part of their life and they will realise that they feel positive afterwards.

Tip No. 5 – See Only As Much As You Can Eat

His last advice is to ask people to only serve you as much as you can eat or want to eat. Some people, including Iqrar Ul Hassan, have a habit that as long as there is food on the table, they will keep eating. Best solution is to have little on the tables.
