Islamabad: Pakistan's Science and Technology Minister Fawad Chaudhry on Sunday slapped TV anchor Mubasher Lucman during a spat over Tik Tok star Hareem Shah.
According to Geo News, the event took place at the 'walima' (reception) ceremony of Punjab Irrigation Minister Mohsin Laghari's son. The ruling Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf's (PTI) leaders Jahangir Tareen and Ishaq Khakwani were also present at the event.
As per the media reports, Tareen and Chaudhry were talking about the allegations that Lucman had levelled on him during a TV show, salaciously linking the federal minister to Hareem Shah.
It was at that moment that Lucman arrived there, triggering a war of words between him and Chaudhry over the issue.
The federal minister reportedly protested at the claims thrown at him during Lucman's show. It was then that Chaudhry slapped and shoved the TV anchor. The altercation stopped when the people intervened.
