LAHORE – Police have registered a case against a professor of the Children’s Hospital in Lahore for allegedly harassing a female doctor at workplace.
The case was registered against Professor Dr Ghulam Mujtaba Zafar, head of the Urology Department at Nasirabad Police Station under Sections 354 and 509 of the Pakistan Penal Code.
The complainant alleged that the professor allegedly subjected her to sexual harassment at the workplace, pressured her and threatened her with serious consequences.
