The woman had posted an allegation of harassment last year, a few hours after Meesha Shafi’s Tweet which resulted in a campaign against Ali Zafar.

A woman has sought an apology from singer and actor Ali Zafar for posting false allegations of harassment against him on her twitter account.

The woman (name Sofi, twitter @seraphina444) tweeted on Monday “Ali Zafar I am sorry that a lie I was told & believed hastily (because liar was very young) though deleted is still being used to bash you & cause you pain. I should have clarified much sooner but I was afraid of the trolls & online stalking & abuse. I hope this can atone for it.”

The woman had posted an allegation of harassment last year, a few hours after Meesha Shafi’s Tweet which resulted in a campaign against Ali Zafar.

In her Tweet, Sofi had alleged that “this guy (Ali Zafar) came to States (USA) at a fund raiser I was organizing by APNA, we sent a girl to liaison with him from airport etc and she said the entire day he touched her back, tried to move too close to her, stared at her, she was exasperated; he is a habitual lecher.”

The Tweet was posted at 7:10pm, the same evening when Meesha Shafi had accused Ali Zafar of sexual allegation.

Sofi deleted her tweet when the official representative of Shaukat Khanum Hospital confronted her allegations. And, later she also deleted her account but Sofi reactivated the same twitter @seraphina444 on Monday and posted an apology from Ai Zafar.

In her Tweet, Sofi had alleged that ‘this guy (Ali Zafar) came to States (USA) at a fund raiser I was organizing by APNA, we sent a girl to liaison with him from airport etc and she said the entire day he touched her back, tried to move too close to her, stared at her, she was exasperated; he is a habitual lecher.

The lady also posted the screenshot of the tweet she made last year, saying that “Last year, I tweeted when a young lady confided her harassment experience with Ali Zafar; I deleted it in a day when certain information was brought to my knowledge which contradicted her description of the incident to me.”

Sofi also said “I am a victim of harassment & a MeToo supporter & inclined to by a woman’s account but sometimes our faith in people is misplaced. I regret the pain my naïveté & lack of impartial judgment has caused Mr Zafar & I hope this can make amends!”

Sofi added that “And for all the #MeToo supporters, we still need to support #MeToo & harassment victims but please don’t commit the mistake I made & do some research of the account told to you. Sometimes there r agendas at play which we only realize much much later!”

People are appreciating Sofi on Twitter for realising her mistake and posting an apology.

The Tweet was posted at 7:10pm, the same evening when Meesha Shafi had accused Ali Zafar of sexual allegation.
