LAHORE: An additional district and sessions judge on Wednesday sought comments from Mozang station house officer by April 12 in a contempt of court petition against him. Petitioner Muhammad Shabir told the court that he was ordered by the court to approach the police to record his statement on his petition against actor Meera for featuring in a video. Shabir said the SHO was directed to record his complaint but he did not entertain him. Shabir had first filed a petition on January 20, saying the video had tarnished the image of the country. He had asked the court to order registration of a case against her and putting her name on the exit control list.
