Saba Qamar and Bilal Saeed deny allegations of arrest warrants issued against them

Clarified!

Saba Qamar and Bilal Saeed became the centre of criticism last year in August for shooting a music video for the song Qubool, inside Wazir Khan Mosque in Lahore. Despite apologies issued by both artists for hurting religious sentiments in the music video, an FIR was registered against them. More than a year later, the news of their arrest warrant started circulating on social media. However, a press release shared by Saba Qamar and Bilal Saeed states that no arrest warrant has been issued. According to the press release, the artists had applied for withdrawal and cancellations of bailable warrants. The application was accepted by the court. “To clarify, at no point were any directions issued to law enforcement for the arrest of our clients,” asserts the press release. “We would, therefore, request all media outlets to exercise diligence and conduct verification before reporting any orders of the Honourable Court in order to prevent the dissemination of false news that poses a significant and detrimental risk to the lives, liberty and well-being of our clients.”
