Sajid Hasan accuses police of forcing his son to admit drug smuggling

Pakistani actor Sajid Hasan has alleged that the police forced his son, Sahir Hasan, into confessing to drug smuggling, claiming that the case is part of a 'planned controversy.'

While speaking to Express News Urdu, Sajid Hasan accused the police of torturing his son, who was arrested in a drug smuggling case. "My son Sahir was beaten up and forced to make a statement of their choice," he stated.

"This is the second time the police have raided my house. Is that a coincidence or a conspiracy?" He said, recalling a similar attempt allegedly made four years ago, but he won the case at that time. 

Describing his son as innocent, the actor claimed that some influential figures may be directly or indirectly involved in this matter.

He also defended the prime suspect in the Mustafa Amir murder case, saying, "I am sure Armaghan is not a killer; facts are being distorted to create a certain narrative."

Calling the police's role suspicious, he said his house was raided twice without a search warrant. He questioned, "Why did they assume that Sahir was involved? And who is making these confessions?" 

Expressing concerns for his safety, he stated that he believes his own life is in danger, adding that those behind the case may have tried to implicate him as well.

Sajid Hasan further said that his son Sahir was like an elder brother to the deceased Mustafa Aamir, and he wants his killers to be caught. "My son is paying a heavy price for wanting to arrest Mustafa's killers."

Sajid believed that the matter had left his family in deep shock, as his wife suffers from epilepsy, and he is scared to see these situations. 

He said, "Personally, this is a tragedy for me because my daughter-in-law and her parents are in deep shock." 

Sajid Hasan demanded that the matter be investigated transparently and the real culprits be brought to justice, as "some big names may be involved in this whole game." He urged that "the prime accused should be found."
