Meesha Shafi condemns the leaked, viral videos of Rabi Pirzada

Rabi Pirzada’s private videos were anonymously leaked on social media last week.

Popular Singer Meesha Shafi came out in support for her and strongly condemned the leaking of videos.

In a tweet Meesha said that she highly condemns the leaking and sharing of these private videos and will always raise her voice when a victim is being shamed and humiliated even though Rabi had accused her of doing a publicity stunt when she accused Ali Zafar.

She wrote, “The same women who were accused of speaking up as a publicity stunt by Rabi are defending her unconditionally today. Including myself.”

“I highly condemn the leaking and sharing of these private videos and will always raise my voice when a victim is being shamed and humiliated”, added Meesha Shafi.

Human rights activist and lawyer Nighat Dad also condemned the leaking of the videos, saying that, according to the Pakistan Electronic Crimes Act, forwarding “nonconsensual intimate images and videos” to others is also a crime.

“Don’t be a silent bystander, report these tweets and do not forward this violence,” she tweeted.

Those who are weaponizing nonconsensual intimate images and videos of @Rabipirzada and those who are forwarding them are committing crime under PECA. Don't be a silent bystander, report these tweets and do not forward this violence. https://t.co/S2eVtp3B4l pic.twitter.com/z0hb4friJM

Rabi Pirzada had indirectly spoken against Meesha when she had gone public with her accusations of sexual harassment against Ali Zafar.

“No one has harassed or disrespected me ever, neither in media nor in family. I respect men and they give me respect in return. Sorry ladies, I’ve no story to share for publicity,” Rabi had tweeted earlier.

Pakistani singer Rabi Pirzada has approached the Federal Investigation Agency after her private videos went viral on social media.

However, several users on social media came out in support for Rabi.
