Just (un)married : Family judge to announce Meera case verdict on Nov 15

Actress claims she never tied the knot, while self-proclaimed husband asks she be restrained from marrying another

LAHORE: A family judge fixed November 15 as the date to announce an already reserved decision on applications filed by film actress Meera and Attiqueur Rehman, who allegedly claimed to be her husband.

The two filed application against each other with the actress claiming jactitation of marriage, while the so-called husband pleaded that she be restrained from tying the knot with another.

The counsel for actress Meera, Sardar Balakh Sher Khosa, through an application, requested the court that the decision be announced during his client’s presence, adding she is not available in Lahore on Saturday.

Actress Meera had filed application against ‘jactitation of marriage’, requesting Attiqueur Rehman be restrained from calling her his wife. In her petition, she told the court that she had not solemnised the marriage.



Meanwhile, Attiqueur Rehman also filed an application, seeking court orders restraining Meera from marrying another till a decision on this application.

On Tuesday, the counsel for actress Meera completed his arguments and said Attique was lying before the court. He added the nikahnama, which was produced, was a forgery and there was no record of it in the union council concerned.

The advocate argued that the evidence produced by Attique was false. Meera’s counsel contended the court the marriage certificate produced by Attiqueur Reham was forged and asked that it be ‘canceled’.

He added that the stamps and signatures of witnesses on the marriage certificates were also forged. The lawyer pleaded with the court to declare the marriage certificate null and void. He concluded that Attique was trying to malign his client’s reputation.

On the other hand, the counsel for Attiqueur Rehman contended Meera had tied the knot with his client who had purchased a house for her in DHA. He added there were several bank transactions which could prove that Meera had received money from Attique’s accounts.

“Now Meera is claiming she had her own property, while the truth is Attique had given it to her after purchase.”

Meera’s counsel implored if any money trail is produced before the court to prove that his client had received any money from Attique’s account, he will withdraw the case.
