LAHORE: Fatima Sohail, the wife of actor Mohsin Abbas Haider has appealed to the Inspector General Police Punjab to change the investigation officer in her domestic abuse case.
Last month, Fatima Sohail alleged that she was physically abused by her husband Mohsin Abbas Haider and he was having an extra-marital affair.
Appearing on Geo News’s morning show Geo Pakistan, Fatima Sohail said the biggest lie told by Mohsin Abbas Haider was that nothing could be proven in court.
“The case has not even gone to court. Only an investigation by the police has taken place in which it has been found that he [Mohsin Abbas Haider] was innocent over the matter of money. He was found guilty of abusing and making threats,” she said.
Further, Fatima Sohail alleged that police was providing relief and not arresting Mohsin Abbas Haider. “This clearly shows the involvement of the police. I would request IG Punjab to transfer the investigation to an honest person.”
Mohsin Abbas Haider has been granted interim bail in the case by a sessions court in Lahore. Speaking to media last month, the actor hoped to end “this battle of truth and lies” and that the issue was a “family matter”.
