A video of a horrific incident is making rounds on social media in which a group of lawyers were seen to be beating up a woman in Malir court.

Apparently, the victim is Pakistan Tehreek Insaaf (PTI) activist Laila Parveen. She filed an FIR against the bounced cheque provided by her former husband Advocate Hasnain.

The value of the bounced cheque is said to be Rs6.5 million. Later she filed an FIR in SITE-Superhighway police station.

Laila along with her brother appeared in court for the case hearing. But a group of lawyers misbehaved and beat up Laila and her brother.

Reports suggest that colleagues of Advocate Hasnain tried to sort out the matter but few of them got violent which resulted in the escalation of the situation.

A case has been lodged against the group of lawyers for verbally and physically abusing Laila and her brother.
