GUJRAT: Jhelum police claim to have arrested a member of the Prime Minister’s Tiger Force for allegedly harassing a lady doctor by recording a video at her workplace in the Tehsil Headquarter Hospital (THQ), Pind Daden Khan, and then sharing it on social media.

Dr Komal Tauqeer lodged a complaint with Pind Daden Khan police on Monday that she was performing her duty at the THQ Hospital on Sunday where an irrelevant employee of the hospital named Shahid kept interrupting her. When she asked him to leave the place, he refused.

Later on, another irrelevant person arrived there who introduced himself as Sajjad Hussain from PM’s tiger force.

Adding further, she said Hussain then started recording a video, asked her irrelevant questions, interrupted her work and harassed her. The accused later uploaded the video on social media.

She said the accused had also asked questions about the duty of another doctor and did not stop filming the scene despite being repeatedly forbidden by her.

Police registered a case against the suspect under sections 186 and 506 of Pakistan Penal Code and arrested him.
