Rawalpindi, February 15, 2025: A heated confrontation between Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Barrister Shoaib Shaheen and former federal minister Fawad Chaudhry turned physical outside Adiala Jail on Saturday. The altercation at Gate No. 5 saw both politicians exchanging verbal jabs before escalating into a scuffle.
According to eyewitnesses, tensions flared when Chaudhry allegedly called Shaheen an “agency tout,” prompting Shaheen to respond, “Mind your own business.” The situation quickly deteriorated, leading to Chaudhry slapping Shaheen, who fell to the ground, sustaining an injury to his arm.
Jail staff intervened to break up the fight. While Chaudhry proceeded into the jail premises, Shaheen received medical attention for his minor injury. PTI lawyer Nadia Khattak, who witnessed the incident, condemned the act of violence, emphasizing that internal disputes should be resolved through dialogue, not physical aggression.
