PML-N Senator Afnanullah has sought legal action against Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) lawyer Sher Afzal Marwat after a brawl during a TV show.
Senator Afnanullah sent a letter to Senior Superintendent Police (SSP) Operation Islamabad Malik Jamil Zaffar seeking the registration of a First Information Report (FIR) against Marwat.
The PML-N leader said a “disturbing incident” occurred in his participation in a talk show hosted by Javed Chaudhry. He said Marwat “physically assaulted me, slapping me three times and beating me while I was nearly unconscious on the floor.”
Afnanullah said he “received media treatment for my injuries, including facial swelling and bruise marks on my head”, saying the act of violence against a sitting Senator is unacceptable. He urged police to initiate action against Marwat and take legal action.
In response, Marwat mocked the exaggerated claims of injuries by Afnanullah. He asked journalists Waseem Badami, Javed Chaudhry, and Mansoor Ali Khan to clarify their position on the narrative of Afnan and claiming he was a ‘Black Belt’.
He said Senator Afnan claimed in his complaint that he was brutally beaten, suffered injuries and was rendered unconscious. “This black belt narrative has seriously damaged public confidence in your professional integrity. Do you all have something to say about this?”

Earlier this week, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) lawyer Sher Afzal Marwat had a physical fight with PML-N Senator Afnanullah Khan during a TV show.
The scuffle took place between Sher Afzal Marwat and PML-N senator Afnanullah in the TV programme of well-known anchor Javed Chaudhry. The situation turned worse as both exchanged harsh words and engaged in a fistfight leading to an exchange of kicks and punches.
Marwat spoke about the incident in another show hosted by anchor Waseem Badami. When asked if there was a scuffle and use of kicks and punches, Marwat said, “Yes it is true because Afnanullah abused Imran Khan”.
PTI lawyer Sher Afzal Marwat said that just as Afnanullah’s father used to abuse Imran Khan, the PML-N leader also used abusive language for the PTI chief. “They did not know that I am Imran Khan’s lawyer as well as his devotee”.
“I am a Pathan. I responded to abuse just like a Pathan,” said Sher Afzal Marwat. “If I was abused, I would have still controlled but Imran Khan was called a Jew, it was not necessary to talk badly. That is why their treatment was made”.

The video of the incident was posted on YouTube by a private TV channel last night, in which it can be seen that Senator Afnanullah Khan calls Imran Khan a boot-licker, on which Sher Afzal Marwat retaliates with the same insult to PML-N leaders.
The host of the program, Javed Chaudhry, explains to both the guests that they should answer each other’s accusations with arguments rather than getting enraged.
After the interval, Sher Afzal Marwat seems to be missing from the program, but the program continues with Afnanullah. It must be mentioned that both have clashed with each other in recent years.
