RAWALPINDI – Minister of Railways Sheikh Rasheed comes under scrutiny as reported by media.

He has been accused of manhandling an elderly woman as well as damaging a reporter’s phone.

The reporter had somehow managed to record the entire incident on camera when an elderly woman started to cry after being denied entry in Lal Haweli.

Speaking about it, Aqib, cameraman of a local TV channel, shared that he saw Rasheed’s security staff barring an elderly woman from entering his Lal Haveli’s residence in Rawalpindi who had gone to meet and seek financial help reportedly.

The reporter, who was there to shoot an Eid-related programme, then saw the Awami Muslim League leader pushing the woman away, after an exchange of some heated words.

Rasheed then grabbed Aqib’s phone and smashed it on a concrete block as the latter was recording the incident on it.

Meanwhile, Rasheed has denied all allegations regarding the debacle.
