LAHORE: A sessions court on Wednesday granted pre-arrest bail to stage actor Khushboo Khan in a case of leaking changing room videos of some fellow actresses.

The actress appeared before the court with her counsel.

Additional District and Sessions Judge Rai Yasin Shaheen granted pre-arrest bail to the actress and restrained the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) from arresting her till Dec 21.

The FIA’s cyber crime wing had registered the case on complaint of Malik Tariq Mahmood, the producer of a theatre.

The complainant alleged the actress and other suspects managed to install a secret camera in the changing room of his theatre and made objectionable videos of other actresses only to blackmail them.
