00:00 Let's also discuss our moral issues.

00:04 The shameful scandal that has emerged in Bahawalpur, Islamia University.

00:09 The reason behind it was that people were raising a lot of questions.

00:14 And now it's obvious that it needs to be investigated further.

00:17 They were questioning how a security guard can hide the security.

00:24 So, basically, the security guard's most important job was

00:29 to monitor the CCTV cameras.

00:32 And he would get some clips of the meetings

00:37 which are now clearly shown on TV.

00:41 And they would be blackmailed.

00:45 They would be told that this is what is happening.

00:49 They would be blackmailed on that basis.

00:51 But I won't say that such incidents were happening only here.

00:57 They keep happening. We hear about them.

01:00 There are a few incidents.

01:01 But the number of videos that are being shown here...

01:07 We have the information about the videos that are being shown here.

01:10 Some of the videos have been leaked.

01:12 The statements that are being shown here.

01:14 The political effects that are being shown here.

01:18 It's very important that this is investigated.

01:21 It's important that this is brought to the public attention

01:23 that in educational institutions, where parents trust their children,

01:29 this is happening to them.

01:30 And why?

01:31 Why are the children not able to tell what is happening to them?

01:36 And how is it possible on such a large scale

01:39 that a few people are doing this

01:41 and the administration is responsible for it?

01:44 How is this possible?

01:45 This is incomprehensible.

01:47 For me, it's incomprehensible.

01:49 Now, the development in this is that the Minister of Punjab,

01:52 Mohsin Laffey, has announced to make a judicial commission on this scandal.

01:57 This was everyone's demand.

01:59 The Minister of Punjab held a rally at Lahore airport

02:02 on his return from Islamabad the other day.

02:04 The report was presented by the Investigative Committee.

02:07 The judicial committee has been decided to establish a committee in the light of the report.

02:13 What does this report say?

02:15 We would like to know.

02:17 Our representatives, Khawaja Nasir, will be with us.

02:19 Yes, Mr. Nasir, please tell us what the Investigative Committee has said so far.

02:25 Mr. Khawaja, can you hear us?

02:32 Yes, we can hear you.

02:36 This is a very sad incident.

02:38 In Bahaulpur, the Islamic University,

02:40 there were three high-power committees

02:47 in the Islamic University of Bahaulpur.

02:49 The first committee was formed under the FIA.

02:52 The second committee was formed under the Higher Education Commission.

02:55 The third committee was formed by the Punjab Government

02:58 through the DIG Special Branch.

03:01 Yesterday, the third committee presented its report.

03:05 The report said that this incident has happened in Bahaulpur.

03:11 The videos of the innocent students have been released.

03:17 All the incidents were on the news.

03:19 After that, the Minister of Punjab shifted the incidents to Lahore.

03:24 The Judicial Commission has been recommended to establish a committee.

03:32 The Judicial Commission's report will be considered as a final report.

03:37 Apart from this, we have heard voices from other universities in Punjab

03:43 that have requested the students of Punjab University.

03:48 The Minister of Punjab University has announced

03:51 that the students and the female professors at the university level

03:55 will look into the harassment cases.

03:58 The secretary of the province will look into the harassment cases.

04:05 Overall, it's a bad name for Punjab.

04:11 Tell me something.

04:14 The Judicial Commission has been formed.

04:16 You said that this will be the final report.

04:18 Who are the people who have been involved in all the investigations?

04:26 Will the Judicial Commission follow the same findings?

04:33 The former director of Bahaulpur University,

04:40 who was removed,

04:43 and the female professors,

04:48 and the vice-chancellor,

04:50 who was given shelter and protection,

04:55 were also questioned.

04:57 But when the committee was being led by the special branch DIG,

05:04 and they looked into each case,

05:07 it was proven that the drugs were not only being distributed in the university,

05:15 but also among the students.

05:18 The videos that were released,

05:24 showed that if the government takes a decision,

05:27 it should not be politicised,

05:30 but should be made by a senior judge of Lahore High Court,

05:34 so that no party is accused.

05:39 The former minister,

05:41 who was also the family of the minister,

05:46 will be questioned by the Lahore High Court,

05:51 and a senior judge will be appointed.

05:56 The commission will be given a timeline,

05:59 and the report will be finalised soon.

06:02 The findings will be finalised soon.

06:06 Thank you so much for telling us.

06:08 The government is very cautious,

06:10 and they are not willing to be involved in any political matter.

06:15 So, the Judicial Commission is the ideal situation.
