Journalist Imran Riaz Khan, who has been facing backlash for victim shaming Noor Mukadam, turned out to be a friend of Zahir Jaffer’s parent’s lawyer.
Imran Riaz Khan, who is an anchor by profession, was recently exposed by another female anchor Madeha Naqvi that Khan deliberately blamed Noor. She posted a series of stories on her Instagram account and revealed the truth.Â
According to Madeha Naqvi, Imran Riaz continuously balmed and shamed Noor Mukadam, who was brutally raped, murdered, and then beheaded. He happens to be friends with Zahir Jaffer’s parent’s lawyer.
In another post, she revealed the lawyer of Jaffer’s parents while posting a screenshot of him with his parents.
In the last screenshot, it can be clearly seen that the lawyer is friends with the journalist and it seems like they both share a good bond.
It is common for Pakistani women to be blamed for the assaults they had ever faced. Something similar happened a day earlier when renowned anchor Imran Riaz Khan blamed Noor Mukadam, a girl who was allegedly murdered last month by her acquaintance Zahir Jaffer, for being murdered.Â
A video clip of anchor Imran Khan has been making rounds on social media, in which he can be seen drawing parallels between Noor Mukadam’s murder and her lack of telephonic conversation with her father.

According to him, the Noor Mukadam case which is being fought in the court has many drawbacks. He also criticised the deceased for talking to Zahir more rather than her father in the last six months.Â
Things got worse when Khan maligned Noor Mukadam’s character and criticised her for having an affair with Zahir Jaffer.
27-year-old Noor Mukadam was the daughter of former Pakistani diplomat Shaukat Mukadam. She was found murdered at a residence in Islamabad’s upscale Sector F-7/4 on July 20. Police said she was slaughtered after being shot at.
