Another video of Islamabad airport surfaces, shows other side of incident

ISLAMABAD: Another video of a quarrel between a female passenger and Federal Investigation Authority (FIA) staffers at Benazir Bhutto International Airport (BBIA) Islamabad has been surfaced in which one could see Fauzia Umar, the female passenger in blue dress, shoving finger of an FIA official and trying to take his mobile phone, possibly over lodging complaint against her.  

In the light of close-circuit television (CCTV) footage, it could been seen that two female passengers harassed and argued FIA staffers over unavailability of tissue paper in the restroom moments before the scuffle broke out between FIA staffer and the passenger, Fauzia Umar.

The footage has further confirmed that the FIA staffers remained restrained in giving response to the ladies on their misbehaviour until they were provoked to respond.

The female passengers, also having Norwegian nationality,  were reportedly threatened FIA staffers of dire consequences.

It all happened on April 15 at BBIA Islamabad. Three female passengers, were there to leave for Norway, however they missed their flight.

Different version of stories has been surfaced so far. However, some passengers who claimed to witness the incident have also taken to social media platforms by defending FIA staffers and holding the female passengers responsible for the incident.

Earlier, a video of the same incident went viral on social media showing a clash between the passengers and FIA immigration officials over which the agency had issued a statement claiming that three female passengers had misbehaved with one of their staff member.

Here are some tweets showing the other side of the story.
