The complainant says that the campaign has caused her swear trauma. Besides this defamation suit, Ali Zafar is also involved in another legal battle with Meesha Shafi who accused him of sexual harassment.

ARY news reported that Sindh High Court (SHC) has served a notice to him for January 25. The notice was served on the singer via a sessions judge of Lahore. The notice says that while Leena Ghani was not part of the conflict between Ali Zafar and Meesha Shafi, he still ran a smear campaign against her on twitter. The activist has also requested for a gag order against Ali Zafar meaning that the court should stop him from speaking about her at all.

In his tweets, the singer alleged that Leena Ghani was behind sexual harassment claims by Meesha Shafi.
