"I will be forced to take legal action."
Pakistani actress Nazish Jahangir has found relief after the Lahore Cantt Court cancelled the arrest warrants issued against her.
The court annulled the non-bailable arrest warrants on the condition that she provide a Rs 50,000 bond.
Nazish appeared before the court accompanied by her lawyer, Barrister Haris.
Judicial Magistrate Ghulam Shabbir Sial oversaw the hearing in the fraud case filed against her.
The case was lodged by actor Aswad Haroon, who accused Nazish of embezzling money, committing fraud, and issuing threats.
Haroon claims that Nazish failed to return Rs 2.5 million and a car that was in her possession.
However, after Nazish’s appearance in court, the arrest warrants were revoked.
The case was adjourned until April 28, 2025, for further proceedings.
Initially, the Lahore court had issued non-bailable arrest warrants in connection with the fraud case.
Authorities were instructed to arrest Nazish and present her in court regarding the Rs 2.5 million fraud allegations.
According to Haroon, he and Nazish became friends after working together on a mini-drama.
Over time, Haroon claims to have lent her Rs 25 lakh in cash, bought expensive gifts for her, and even took her on an Umrah trip.
However, the relationship soured when Nazish allegedly took his car and failed to return it.
Haroon’s legal action was taken in response to this situation.
Nazish Jahangir, for her part, has remained largely silent about the case but strongly denies all allegations. She insists that Haroon’s claims are false.
Additionally, she has taken legal steps to counter negative propaganda against her.
The actress has issued a warning to media outlets, individuals, and pages that spread false or misleading information about her.
She stated: “This is a formal warning to all individuals, pages, and entities posting false, misleading, or unverified information about me.
“If the posts in question are not immediately removed and a public apology issued within 24 hours of this notice, I will be forced to take legal action against each party responsible for these defamatory posts.”
Nazish further stated that continued dissemination of false information would result in legal action under the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act (PECA), 2016.
She has also employed a team of lawyers to handle any defamation cases that may arise.
The situation surrounding Nazish Jahangir is ongoing, and her legal team is continuing to work on addressing these issues in court.
