"I managed to get inside the premises and asked someone to please record the footage...I'm not aware of their position," she told a local television channel following the incident.

Responding to how she was able to get inside the premises, she said, "Look I was granted permission and went in alone. I'm a Pakistani citizen and it is my right to have gone there...I did nothing wrong."
