ISLAMABAD (PEN) : FIA Cybercrime unit arrested vlogger Dr. Omer Adil over allegations that he made derogatory remarks about women in his vlogs. The arrest followed a complaint from Punjab Information Minister Azma Bukhari, who claimed that Adil’s content was disrespectful and insulting towards women.
This isn’t the first time Dr. Omer Adil has faced such accusations. Earlier, he was arrested following a complaint from anchorperson Gharidah Farooqi, who had also accused him of making offensive comments about women on social media. Although he was released after that incident, he later appeared on a podcast to issue an apology to Farooqi.
Farooqi had alleged that Adil’s remarks were not only hurtful but also damaging to the dignity of women online.
