ISLAMABAD, (DNA) – A woman in Islamabad was arrested on Sunday for allegedly abusing, threatening and misbehaving with police officials at an entry point to the Diplomatic Enclave after her vehicle, which was missing a number plate, was stopped by police.

The incident came to the notice of law enforcement and government officials after a video of the back-and-forth between the woman and police officers went viral on social media on Saturday.

The viral video showed the woman furiously yelling, using abusive language and hurling threats at police officials who had stopped her at the checkpoint.

She repeatedly asked the police to provide a “genuine reason” as to why she had been stopped, and even pressured the police officers to permit the vehicle to enter the Diplomatic Enclave, a highly sensitive and secure location in Islamabad, where government buildings and offices are located.

She was arrested from a local housing society and shifted to a police station for women.

Minister of State for Interior Shehryar Afridi also took notice of the woman’s behaviour with police officials and reminded citizens that no one is above the law. He directed officials to take action as per the law and asked police to submit a report on the matter.
