Chaos ensued at a local concert in Karachi where pop stars Atif Aslam and Ali Zafar were set to perform on Sunday night reportedly injuring three people. However, conflicting reports have come out from different eyewitnesses, according to local media.
The pop stars were set to perform at Karachi’s Aladdin Park when the situation got out of control.
According to one, the crowd threw bottles at Atif, which prompted him to leave the stage immediately. According to some reports, a child was lost at the venue and the father wanted to make an announcement but the bouncers wouldn’t let him.
However, one eyewitness told local media that a fight had started between some security guys and sound guys. He added that no child was lost but the fight got messy and he saw three guys bleeding.
As far as whether Atif was hit and injured with bottles, it was reported that the reason the crowd started throwing bottles on stage was because they wanted Atif back on stage.
Ali Zafar was set to perform later but the incident caused the show to be called off.
The concert was hosted by Waqar Zaka and Rafay Israr opened the show. Zaka, on his snap chat, blamed the organisers for being unable to manage arrangements.
Police arrived at the scene and controlled the situation.
