ISLAMABAD – A musical night in Islamabad has been hit by controversy even before the concert could properly get underway.
A heated confrontation reportedly erupted at Islamabad Sports Complex after Magistrate Sihala arrived at the venue accompanied by several people who allegedly attempted to sneak into the concert without tickets.
The police official deployed at venue stopped individuals from entering, insisting that only ticket holders should be allowed inside. The intervention reportedly triggered a heated exchange between the magistrate and the police official.
