Journalist Ayesha Binte Rashid has accused popular singer, Ali Noor of sexual harassment, by sharing the screenshots of her alleged conversation with the singer.
The screenshots of the conversation also read Ali Noor’s WhatsApp messages which he had sent to Ayesha Binte Rashid from his wife Mandana Zaidi’s phone number after being blocked by the journalist.
Ayesha Binte Rashid’s message read, “You emotionally manipulated me and what happened in the back of my car while we were driving to the airport was sexual harassment. You’re a sexual harasser and predator.”
“You also threatened me with putting an end to my friendship with Kami if I stood up to you but jokes on you because I told Kami about what you did and then I ended my friendship with him because I have no interest in having people in my life who fraternize with harassers.”
“I hope you live a sad life for what ever years you have remaining Ali Noor, and I hope you die a lonely and painful death, …”
While responding to her message, Ali Noor wrote using Mandana Zaidi’s number, saying, “Thank you for a serious wake up call and realization. You don’t know but your message came at a time when I most needed it. It was like a divine intervention, perfect timing, completely serendipitous.”
He then said, “You on the other hand need to forgive. First yourself and then others around you.”

The singer took to the Instagram Stories to address the sexual harassment accusation, saying, “Today, I put the teaser and release date of the video and the son but as I was doing that I got a message from newspapers that I have been accused of #MeToo by Ayesha Binte and my screenshots and apologies have been put up, She didn’t put all of them and that’s sad.”
“I even suggested I should be hanged and executed publicly. She simply wasn’t taking me seriously. Anyway, I am so glad she finally put it out.”
His story also read, “This is no PR ploy to promote a new single. This is serious sh** and will have to be addressed… I don’t mind being called the worst person on Earth… but people around me are getting concerned and hurt and I hate to cause strife to anyone including Rashid.”
“This is pissing me off. I want to release my song in peace on the 22nd. It’s the most painful song and video I’ve done in my life and it means a lot to me. I’ll address everyone’s concerns and questions on the 25th.”
Later in another IG story, he wrote, “Dear @balancingbinte. After deeply deliberating various responses, I came to the conclusion that the only right response is that I am truly deeply sorry.”
He added, “I cannot fathom your pain and only apologize once again. I am not an ill intentioned person and am definitely a work in progress. I hope that you can find some relief in my apology. Baaqi Allah Malik.”
