Social media influencer Dania Shah’s husband, Hakeem Shehzad, has issued a public apology over his viral video at a wedding besides an audio wherein he had used explicit language.
In a video message, Shehzad admitted that it was inappropriate of him to upload such content online. Reflecting on his actions, he expressed regret over organising a mujra [dance] performance at a family wedding during a time when Pakistan was grappling with the devastating impact of floods.

“I should not have uploaded that video online,” Shehzad said. “I should have instead organised the dance programme at a more appropriate time, not while the country was suffering due to floods.”
He revealed that the Crime Control Department (CCD) had summoned him regarding the incident, informing him that his actions were inappropriate and unacceptable. Acknowledging his mistake, Shehzad said, “I am very much ashamed of my wrongdoing and I urge people to be mindful of their language. Choose your words wisely and maintain decency in communication.”
Taking responsibility, Shehzad announced that all the money he had earned from the dance event would be donated to the victims of the recent floods in Pakistan.
This is not the first time that the CCD intervened in cases involving social media influencers.
Earlier, TikToker Kashif Zameer was also summoned by the department. Zameer was arrested after videos surfaced on social media showing his private security guards openly displaying firearms in public. The CCD swiftly launched a crackdown, detaining Zameer along with 13 of his heavily armed guards.
The arrest was followed by an apology video from Zameer.
