According to the doctor, the surgery was performed in April and was medically successful.Dr Ali Zain stated that he was summoned to the police station on the instructions of then ASP Defence, ASP Shehrbano Naqvi, who allegedly told him that the patient’s operation had been done incorrectly and that he must refund the money so she could seek treatment elsewhere.He claimed that the patient had already forcibly taken Rs400,000 from his clinic, despite having paid only Rs150,000 for the laser eye surgery. Dr Ali Zain said he informed ASP Shehrbano Naqvi that he had already returned the amount, but was allegedly told to pay again.The doctor further alleged that under police pressure, he handed over three cheques worth Rs10 million in total to the patient. He said one of the cheques has already been encashed, while his legal team has moved to stop payment on the remaining two through legal proceedings.According to Dr Ali Zain, the total amount taken from him so far stands at Rs7.5 million. He also claimed that the woman appeared to have close ties with the police.Dr Ali Zain further alleged that SP Shehrbano Naqvi sent SHO Khurram to his clinic to summon him to the police station, during which his clinic guard was allegedly detained illegally and locked up.He argued that police had no legal authority to judge the success or failure of a medical procedure without a medical report or a decision from a medical board, stressing that only a qualified medical board can determine whether an operation was performed correctly.In response, SP Shehrbano Naqvi rejected the allegations, stating that Dr Ali Zain visited her office only once and was merely advised to resolve the matter with the patient. She denied any use of force, harassment, or mistreatment, saying no abuse or violence was committed against the doctor.
