The video has been verified by sources, confirming that the incident took place on January 1. According to an FIR filed on January 2, the woman was stopped for speeding near a Toll Plaza on the motorway.
However, instead of admitting her mistake and providing the information asked by the police, the woman confronted the police officials.
According to a report by the local digital media outlet Pakistan24, the female driver has reportedly fled abroad. The outlet also claimed that she is the wife of well-known TV anchor Amir Mateen. However, when contacted, Mateen stated that he and his wife had already separated.
