PESHAWAR: A model attending Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI)'s Peshawar rally has complained of being harassed by the party's supporters.

With apparently no appropriate arrangements for women, model Ainee Khan claims she had to take refuge in a car when PTI supporters began getting rowdy and harassing her.

"I only came here to propose Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf chairman and was forced to take refuge in this car after being harassed by the party workers," Ainee Khan said while talking to media on Tuesday.

According to the model, the workers asked her to take selfies with them but as more and more of them gathered, she was forced to run and hide in her car.

Women’s harassment: PTI forms committee to investigate F-9 Park rally episode

Ainee said she had no idea there was no designated area for women in the congregation. The situation was immediately put under control by police and organisers who were present at the rally.

Meanwhile, PTI leaders Faisal Jawaid and Naeemul Haq said the woman was not a Peshawar resident, adding that the incident seemed a conspiracy against the party to sabotage its protest plans, Express News reported.

Harassment incident: ‘PTI capable of protecting its women’

Incidents of women's harassment at the rallies in Islamabad and Lahore last month forced PTI to alter its schedule for Faisalabad. Tendering an apology on the incidents, PTI chairman had also formed a committee to investigate

CH. Shah Nawaz | 8 years ago | Reply Mr. Hamza you say that PTI party workers and supporters behave badly and this is conspiracy by another party. This is the reason no one takes PTI seriously. Instead of talk and silly dharna politics, why not do something positive, "and open off shore companies'. imran khan conducted jalsa s , but these things never happenend before . on one hand Pti leaders must make arrangements for women AND ON OTHER SIDE noon league should not spend money by sending hired people to PTI jalsas..if smeone can peep in history ANP workers tried to sabotage mufti mehmood jalsa. So did people Party workers with ANP jalsa at liaqat bagh Rawalpindi. if NOON LEAGUE THINKS THAT BY SENDING PEOPLE IN PTI JAlSA TO sabotage they will remain safe . it will be their thinking..This trend is very dangerous and Panama Leaks will not be burried under the dust .
Humza | 8 years ago | Reply @zubair: So PTI party workers and supporters behave badly and this is conspiracy by another party. This is the reason no one takes PTI seriously. Instead of talk and silly dharna politics, why not do something positive and change KPK for the better or at least teach people in the jalsas on how they should behave. Imran Khan himself never owned up to Sita White and his daughter until his ex wife Jemima made him accept her. This is what happens when you set a bad example.
