Nazish Jahangir Speaks Out on Fraud Allegations

Renowned actress Nazish Jahangir has finally addressed the fraud allegations against her, dismissing them as baseless and accusing her accuser of blackmail and extortion.

Speaking on Nida Yasir’s Ramzan show, she directly confronted the accusations made by emerging actor Aswad Haroon for the first time. Without mentioning his name, she alleged that someone deliberately attempted to damage her reputation and career with false claims.

“They systematically tried to tarnish my name with baseless allegations,” she stated.

She further accused the actor of seeking fame through controversy. “No one even knew the person who accused me. They just wanted to gain attention by using my name,” she claimed.

Financial Struggle Faced by Nazish Jahangir

Nazish also revealed the financial pressure she faced, saying, “They blackmailed me badly and even attempted to extort money from me.”

She explained why she initially chose to stay silent. “I worked hard to earn my name. If I had reacted, my reputation would have suffered, and the accuser’s plan would have succeeded,” she said.

Emphasizing her approach to handling personal matters, she added, “If I had responded publicly, people would have assumed I was guilty.” She credited her father for advising her to pursue legal action instead of engaging in online disputes.

“I took legal action against the accuser, and now the matter has been resolved,” she confirmed.

Nazish also cited the PECA Ordinance, warning that posting pictures, videos, or statements about individuals—including actors—without their consent could lead to legal consequences.

In September 2024, a Lahore court rejected her bail plea in a fraud case filed by Aswad Haroon, who alleged that he gave her millions of rupees in cash, a luxury car worth over five million, and other valuable gifts, believing she would launch him as a lead actor in the entertainment industry.

Now, after six months of silence, Nazish Jahangir has firmly denied the allegations, calling them a complete fabrication.
