Ali Zafar, who is suing Meesha for defamation over her allegations that he sexually harassed her on multiple occasions including a jamming session before their December concert, also retweeted another lawyer’s tweet in which the lawyer termed Meesha’s move a ‘delaying tactic’. link

“Meesha Shafi now wants her case transferred to a different judge because the one hearing Ali Zafar’s defamation claim is ‘biased’. As a trial lawyer I can tell you this is a popular delaying tactic by litigants who know they don’t stand a chance,” wrote one Barrister Hamza Gulzar.
