Pakistan People Party leader Sharmila Farooqi answered the most confusing question on ARY News’ program Har Lamha Purjosh, when she was asked about the incident involving his fellow party member Sharjeel Memon.
During the Bouncer round of the show, anchor Waseem Badami ‘innocently’ questioned: “Was it really honey inside Sharjeel Memon’s bottle?” To which, she candidly said, “No, it was not”.
It may be recalled that last year in Septemeber, three bottles of liquor were reportedly recovered from the hospital room of Sharjeel Memon when the then chief justice of Pakistan, Mian Saqib Nisar, paid a surprise visit to the Ziauddin Hospital in Karachi. In an effort to cover up the episode, PPP leader Nasir Hussain Shah had claimed that the bottles didn’t contain liquor but honey and olive oil.
During the fun session, the PPP leader, while answering, also termed rival PML-N better at governance than PPP.
When asked if her marriage function was a one-dish party as she herself was the biggest proponent of the idea and even moved a bill in the assembly in this regard, Sharmila revealed that her marriage function was actually a one-dish affair.
About some media reports regarding protocol at her engagement function, she said that the reports were incorrect as it was a close family affair and there were not more than 350 guests attending the event.
