Pakistani actress Saba Qamar speaks for the first time regarding the petition filed against her over wearing a Punjab Police uniform in her 2023 drama. The petition, lodged in a Lahore court, sought criminal proceedings after behind-the-scenes footage and photographs circulated online.
Addressing the matter, Saba Qamar speaks with clarity, stating that she wore the uniform solely for her role as a police officer in the drama. She shared official documentation proving that permission had been granted years before the show aired.
On Friday, the actor posted an image of an approval letter on Instagram, signed by the DIG Operations Lahore in 2021. The letter confirmed that the production had been authorized to use Punjab Police uniforms as part of Pakistan’s Betterment Image Program under the Department of Police Reform (DOPR) Punjab.
In her statement, Saba Qamar speaks directly to critics, urging them not to misuse her name for publicity. She wrote, “Kindly look elsewhere for publicity. Everything I have today is the result of hard work. I encourage you to focus on your own journey; your time will come. Good luck.”
The petition, filed by Waseem Zawar and argued by Advocate Mujaddid Bajwa, was heard by Additional Sessions Judge Ilyas Rehan. The court has now sought comments from the police and adjourned the proceedings until January 14, 2026.
Legal experts note that such clarifications by actors can help prevent misunderstandings and misinformation on social media. By sharing official proof, Saba Qamar speaks firmly against allegations that could harm her reputation.
Fans have shown strong support for the actress online, appreciating her transparency and professionalism. Observers say the case highlights the importance of proper permissions in media productions and the need for clear communication with authorities.
With Saba Qamar speaks publicly on this matter, the controversy is expected to settle swiftly, reinforcing her commitment to professionalism in her acting career.
