Sahir Lodhi Booked in Extortion Case

A police case has been filed against TV host and actor Sahir Lodhi, and his alleged accomplice Faisal Zia, for allegedly extorting Rs. 4 million from a widow in Karachi. The incident came to light after a resident of Landhi's Majeed Colony lodged a complaint with Shah Latif Town Police Station. The woman claimed that she met Sahir Lodhi through Faisal Lashkarwala and was persuaded to invest Rs.

4 million. According to her allegations, Lodhi made two payments of Rs. 2.5 million and Rs. 4 million, and issued seven cheques for repayment, ranging from Rs. 8 million to Rs. 9 million. However, all the cheques bounced. The widow stated that after informing Lodhi about the bounced payments, he issued another cheque for Rs. 4.4 million, which also failed to clear.

Following the court's order, the police registered a case against Lodhi and Zia and initiated an investigation into the matter. The case is currently under investigation, and its final status will depend on the evidence collected during the investigation and subsequent court proceedings.
