Later, Dr Aneela who manhandled 24News reporter Ms Sameen extended her apology. She said she felt sorry over what had happened. This incident should not have happened in the first place, Dr Aneela regretted. She said this incident would be probed and action would also be taken against the scouts who were involved in rough-handedness.
Dr Aneela said that 24News reporter Ms Sameen was meted out such treatment because she and her cameraman entered the Expo Centre without permission and nobody guided them that they were not allowed without permission.
Another lady doctor at Expo Centre told News24 that Dr Aneela had already manhandled a male doctor.
PTI MPA in Sindh Assembly Halim Adil Sheikh condemned the incident saying that Dr Aneela’s behaviour did not behove a doctor.
However, Dr Aneela assured that in future such an incident would never be repeated.
