Ayesha Ahad Malik, the alleged wife of Hamza Shahbaz Sharif, son of Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif, said on Wednesday that Hamza was threatening her for creating hurdles in his new marriage. In a letter addressed to the Chief Justice of Pakistan, Ayesha expressed fear that she, her daughter Mahnoor and her brother Ali Imran Yusuf were being threatened by Hamza. Hamza Shahbaz, who is also a member of the National Assembly, is getting married to Dr Rabia, a Kasmiri-American. This is his second marriage, but according to the law, he cannot get married a second time without permission from his first wife. Ayesha claims that she has a video footage where Hamza swears that she is his wife and that he will never divorce her. She has said in the letter that she married Hamza Shahbaz in April 2010 and his attitude towards her changed by February this year and now he is remarrying which is unfair to her. She has requested the chief justice to take suo motu action on the issue and provide security and justice to her. She said that the local court also issued notices to Hamza and his family due to which they are harassing her and her family.
