The newly formed constitutional bench of Supreme Court of Pakistan, led by Justice Aminuddin, will take up the sexual harassment allegations case between singer Meesha Shafi and fellow artist Ali Zafar on November 15, 2024.
In April 2018, Ms. Shafi accused Zafar of harassment, sparking a legal battle that has since become a focal point for discussions.
The constitutional bench formed as a result of the 26th amendment has been entrusted to hear cases requiring constitutional interpretation. The elevation of Ali Zafar and Meesha Shafi’s case to the constitutional bench signifies its importance in potentially setting legal precedents.
