Fighting His Legal Battle Alone<\/h3>\n

The ace director also left the country and wasn’t active on social media. Now Jami Azaad clarifies that’s not the case. According to Galaxy Lollywood, the director shared why he temporarily disabled his Facebook on the advice of family and friends.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had deactivated my Facebook for some time because my family and friends stated that I should, but now I\u2019ve realized I need to be vocal about everything.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As for word that he had ‘fled the country<\/em>‘, the O21<\/em><\/strong> filmmaker clarified that he’s been in Pakistan for almost a year now fighting his case.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would like to take this opportunity to tell people that I\u2019m in Pakistan for the past nine months and I have been regularly attending my hearings and fighting my case. Alone.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

He opened up about being abandoned to deal with the lawsuit alone while others apologized to those they had accused. Even from the biz aside from Maheen Khan and Mehreen Jabar no one came out to support him covertly or overtly.\u00a0He even talked about losing his ‘guy gang’.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Jami Will No Longer Remain Silent<\/h3>\n

The lawsuit Hameed Haroon filed against Jami Azaad demanded that;<\/p>\n

“Jami issue an unconditional apology on all social media platforms that he had used to accuse Hameed Haroon and monetary compensation against the allegations.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Even now he is being pushed towards apologizing but the director feels that he cannot let all the other #METOO victims with him down.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am being told to apologize but since I have a lot of other victims backing me up, I have realized this isn\u2019t my case alone and I have to keep fighting. I\u2019m currently fighting three cases all alone, and I intend to stand strong. I will not spare anyone,\u201d said Jami.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

He is currently fighting a case against his childhood friend of 13 years. But he won’t back down.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have repeatedly told them to put me in jail if they want to but I will not call off my case or apologize.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
