Maryam Nawaz warned that no one is above the law after actor Momina Iqbal accused PML-N lawmaker Saqib Chadhar of online harassment and death threats. Both appeared before Pakistan’s cybercrime agency as investigators examined allegations, counterclaims, and evidence submitted by the actor’s family.

Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz has issued a strong warning against harassment and exploitation of women after Pakistani actor-model Momina Iqbal accused a ruling party lawmaker of online harassment and death threats.

In a statement posted on X, Maryam Nawaz said the matter involving a Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Member of the Provincial Assembly and a media personality was a “personal issue” that would be handled strictly according to law. However, she stressed that no one would be spared if found involved in harassing, threatening, or exploiting a woman.

“No individual, regardless of status, position, or political connections, is above the law,” she said, adding that any attempt to threaten a woman through the release of personal content or by exerting political pressure would invite “firm and uncompromising action.”

The statement came after PML-N MPA Saqib Chadhar and Momina Iqbal appeared before Pakistan’s National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency in Lahore on Thursday to record their statements.
