An Airport Security Force (ASF) personnel allegedly cut the hair of a woman going on Hajj pilgrimage in Karachi, the 24NewsHD TV channel reported on Monday.

Seema Bano was going to Saudi Arabia to perform Hajj. An ASF staff, Rizwana, had a suspicion and scanned the woman pilgrim.

According to sources, the Hajj pilgrim cleared the scanning but the ASF staff cut her hair.

The Aviation Division launched an inquiry while the spokesperson for the ASF refrained from commenting.
