Public outrage grows after a video of the actor supporting his son, Sahir Hasan, circulates online.
Pakistani actor Sajid Hasan is facing intense criticism after publicly supporting his son, Sahir Hasan, who was recently arrested for allegedly supplying drugs. The arrest occurred while investigating the Mustafa Aamir murder case, where police discovered that the prime suspect, Armaghan Qureshi, had allegedly obtained drugs from Sahir Hasan.
While Sahir Hasan has not been linked to Mustafa Aamir’s murder, authorities charged him with drug supply and placed him under a one-day remand. Additionally, DNA analysis confirmed that the girl found at his residence was his maid.
Viral video sparks public outrage
A video circulating on social media shows Sajid Hasan meeting with his son and offering support amid the legal proceedings. In the footage, Sajid appears to be taking measures to secure Sahir’s bail while expressing gratitude to officers assisting the process. The video has sparked a wave of backlash from the public, with many criticizing the actor’s stance.
Social media reactions
Social media users were quick to voice their disapproval. One user commented, “They are posing in the middle of a criminal proceeding? He seems to be a proud father, and the son seems to be proud of whatever he has done.”
Another expressed concern that Sahir might evade justice due to his father’s influence, saying, “I hope he is punished. I think he will be released because of the support he will get from officials.” A third user criticized Sajid Hasan’s parenting, stating, “Instead of encouraging him, you should be ashamed that you are not able to train your children well.”
Ongoing investigation
The investigation into the case is still ongoing, and authorities have not yet provided further updates on Sahir Hasan’s legal status. Meanwhile, the public continues to express frustration over what they perceive as an attempt to shield the accused from accountability.
