Published April 20, 2018

It seems like Meesha Shafi’s courage to speak against singer/actor Ali Zafar has given many other women a motivation to voice their experiences with the ‘Teefa in Trouble’ actor.

Yesterday, Pakistani singer Meesha came forward with her allegation against Ali, claiming that the actor sexually harassed her on multiple occasions. Hours after this, many other women are now speaking up against the Ali.

Famous blogger Humna Raza took to Twitter and narrated an incident from a year-and-a-half ago when she met Ali at an event. She revealed that the actor allegedly touched her inappropriately when she was taking a selfie with him.

Similarly, journalist Maham Javaid also leveled accusations against Ali for trying to kiss her cousin around many years ago. She tweeted that  over the years they forgot the story themselves, until today after Meesha made harassment allegations against Ali.

Make up artist Leena Ghani also shared a similar story and spoke about how Ali has treated her in the past. She claimed that over the years  who according to them had touched them inappropriately.

She thanked Meesha for her courage and her bravery, which, according to Leena, gave her the courage to speak up too.

Another Twitter user by the name of Sofi also alleged that Ali molested a high school student volunteer during a fundraising event at Washington DC.

In the wake of the #Metoo campaign, ‘Jugni’ singer Meesha had shared her own sexual misconduct experience, accusing Ali of sexually abusing her many times. Seeing her tweets, Meesha has received a mixed reaction from Ali and her fans. Many have bashed her for accusing a renowned name without 'proper evidence' against him.

Many celebrities have lent their support to Meesha including Urwa Hocane, Osman Khalid Butt and Reham Khan.
