    “Sadaf was trying to prove that she was better than the rest of the people out there,” he added.

    “She was wearing leggings underneath, but she did not need to be so carefree with my clothes. I think Sadaf was trying to prove that she was better than the rest of the people out there.

    ‘Have bought followers’: Ali Abbas slams system, wants an investigation

    Actor Ali Abbas while talking to a digital media portal has said that when casting is done on the basis of popularity, talent gets left behind. “This is an era of social media where having followers is a necessity. But if people are being cast on the basis of their followers, it is necessary to check how many of them are original” said the Fitoor.

    “We all know some people have bought followers and companies sell them as well so it would be unfair to not differentiate between organic and fake followers. Also, when casting is done on the basis of popularity, talent gets left behind,” he added.

  • ‘Strict punishments, executions will return,’ says Taliban leader

    Taliban leader Mullah Nooruddin Turabi in an interview with The Associated Press has said that strict punishments like executions and amputation of hands will return in Afghanistan under the Taliban regime. Turabi also warned the world against interfering with Afghanistan’s new rulers. Turabi is currently in charge of prisons, under the new Taliban government.

    “Everyone criticised us for the punishments in the stadium, but we have never said anything about their laws and their punishments,” Turabi told AP in Kabul.

    “No one will tell us what our laws should be. Cutting off of hands is very necessary for security,” he said, saying it had a deterrent effect. He said the cabinet was studying whether to carry out punishments in public and will “develop a policy”.
