The Defense C police station in Lahore has registered a case against the husband of former actress Nargis over alleged torture and threatening to murder.

According to the first information report (FIR), Bashir allegedly attempted to forcibly take cash and jewellery from Nargis at gunpoint and get a farm house transferred in his name.

The incident reportedly took place at the couple's Defence residence in Lahore where the actress alleged the policeman husband hit her repeatedly with the official pistol, dragged her by hair and threatened to kill her.

In the FIR, Nargis alleged that Majid Bashir wants to forcibly transfer the property in his name, for which he commits violence on her. The police say legal action is being taken against Bashir.
