A video of the incident has gone viral on social media, showing the woman arguing at the roadside as a crowd gathered around the vehicles.

The woman sat in the rickshaw driver’s seat and repeatedly demanded the keys to her own car. The growing crowd and ensuing commotion disrupted traffic on the road connecting Rashid Minhas Road to Johar Mor.

The video also shows the woman attempting to stop traffic. At one point, when a passerby tried to move the car, she climbed onto its bonnet while the vehicle was moving. The man then pushed her off the vehicle, causing her to fall onto the road.

Later, police shifted the woman to Shahrah-e-Faisal police station where she apologised for her behaviour and assured the affected parties that she would compensate them for the losses caused by the altercation.

ISLAMABAD – Pakistan has increased the cash transaction reporting threshold for banks from Rs2 million to Rs3 million, raising the limit by Rs1 million under the revised reporting requirements.

Under the new threshold, banks will be required to submit details of cash transactions exceeding Rs3 million to the Financial Monitoring Unit (FMU). Previously, reporting was mandatory for cash transactions exceeding Rs2 million.

The revision marks a change in the reporting limit applicable to banks as part of the country’s financial monitoring framework.

In a separate development, authorities have agreed to extend anti-money laundering powers to provincial anti-corruption bodies. However, the transfer of these powers will remain subject to the completion of relevant procedures and regulatory requirements.

The government has also decided to bring virtual assets within the country’s legal framework for combating money laundering.

Reports said the Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority has also been granted powers under the anti-money laundering law. The move forms part of broader efforts to incorporate virtual assets into the existing legal and regulatory framework for preventing financial crimes.

LAHORE – Noreen Niazi, the sister of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan, has been shifted from Kot Lakhpat Jail to a hospital after her health reportedly deteriorated during detention.

Her lawyer, Rana Mudassar Umar, said in a statement shared on social media that Noorain Niazi was taken to the Punjab Institute of Cardiology following a decline in her health while in jail.

During the hearing, an assistant advocate general informed Justice Abher Gul Khan that the provincial authorities had approved an additional 30 days of detention for Aleema Khan, Dr Uzma Khan and Noreen Niazi. The decision was taken following a recommendation from the Lahore deputy commissioner.

ISLAMABAD – Internet users across Pakistan may experience slower connection speeds during peak hours until November 2, 2026 due to emergency maintenance work on the Asia-Africa-Europe 1 (AAE-1) submarine cable, according to Pakistan Telecommunication Company Limited (PTCL).

The company said repair work has begun on the cable section between Italy and France, potentially affecting internet performance during busy periods. PTCL warned that users may experience a slight decline in service quality while the maintenance work continues.

The company has urged customers to remain patient and cooperate during the repair process.

The AAE-1 submarine cable is one of the key routes carrying Pakistan’s international internet traffic. Stretching approximately 25,000 kilometres, the cable system connects Southeast Asia with Europe through Egypt, with a landing point in Karachi.

Since the maintenance work is taking place on the European section of the cable, users may notice slower access to websites and online services hosted in European countries, particularly during evening peak hours.

However, the extent of the impact may vary depending on network traffic and the services being accessed.

This is not the first time that a fault or maintenance work involving the AAE-1 submarine cable has raised concerns among internet users in Pakistan.

ISLAMABAD – Federal Minister for Energy Awais Leghari has announced plans to abolish the additional electricity charges formula for consumers whose monthly consumption exceeds 200 units.

Speaking during a Senate session, Awais Leghari said the government was going to abolish the additional charges formula for six months for electricity consumers whose usage exceeds 201 units.

He noted that the current arrangement had benefited wealthier consumers more than low-income households.

During the Senate discussion, Senator Abid Sher Ali highlighted the financial burden of electricity tariffs on millions of Pakistanis, including protected consumers.

He questioned why electricity bills could increase sharply when a household’s consumption exceeded the 200-unit threshold by even a single unit. He also asked whether ordinary consumers were being made to bear the cost of electricity theft and losses within distribution companies.

In response, Leghari said electricity tariff slabs were necessary but acknowledged the need to resolve the difficulties associated with the existing system.

The minister said the number of consumers using up to 200 units of electricity had reached approximately 20 million. He added that many consumers in this category also relied on solar energy.

The government is now working on a system that would determine electricity relief according to household poverty levels instead of relying solely on the number of units consumed.

The energy minister told the Senate that the circular debt in the power sector had declined to Rs1,670 billion. The government aims to eliminate the circular debt within the next four years, he said, adding that the debt servicing surcharge associated with circular debt would also be abolished.

According to Leghari, the Energy Ministry received Rs1,180 billion in budgetary support when the current government took office. That support has decreased to Rs700 billion in the current fiscal year.

He also said annual losses of power distribution companies (DISCOs) had been reduced, although the benefits of those improvements had not yet been passed on to electricity consumers.

WELLINGTON – Immigration New Zealand has introduced four key changes to its student visa rules, revising work rights, compliance requirements, visa processing procedures and timelines for students nearing the end of their courses.

Reports said the new rules took effect on October 27, 2026, and apply to international students covered by the relevant visa conditions.

The changes are expected to affect how international students manage their employment during studies, meet visa requirements and plan their next steps after completing their courses.

Revised Work Rights for Research Master’s Students

Under the updated rules, research-based master’s students will no longer have unlimited work rights while studying. Instead, they will follow the same conditions as other master’s students.

Eligible students will be permitted to work up to 25 hours per week during academic terms and full-time during scheduled holidays, subject to their visa conditions.

Stricter Assessment of Visa Compliance

Immigration New Zealand has also tightened English-language requirements when assessing whether students can comply with the conditions attached to their visas.

The revised approach introduces additional considerations into the assessment process for international student visa applicants and holders.

Expanded Powers to Pause Visa Processing

Under the new rules, Immigration New Zealand can suspend student visa processing in a wider range of circumstances. These include situations in which authorities investigate possible non-compliance by educational institutions.

The change expands the circumstances in which visa applications may be put on hold while compliance concerns are examined.

Extended Time to Decide on Next Steps

Another key change concerns students whose visas expire one month after their courses end. These students will now have two months to decide on their next steps.

However, the existing March 31 expiry date for visas covered by the relevant schedule will remain unchanged.

What the Changes Mean for International Students

The updated rules make it important for international students in New Zealand to understand their individual visa conditions, particularly regarding permitted working hours, English-language requirements and the timing of their next immigration steps.

Students should review the conditions attached to their visas and seek clarification from Immigration New Zealand where necessary to ensure they comply with the revised requirements.

RIYADH – The United States has ordered non-emergency government employees and family members of US government personnel to leave Saudi Arabia amid security concerns following attacks by Houthi forces, according to an official statement issued by the US Embassy in Riyadh on October 27.

The US Department of State issued the departure order effective October 23, citing safety risks amid hostilities targeting Saudi Arabia, including attacks on civilian airports and other critical infrastructure that have caused civilian casualties and severe travel disruptions.

In its security alert, the US Embassy warned that the situation could escalate rapidly beyond the areas directly affected by the hostilities.

The embassy also said US government employees stationed in Saudi Arabia now require special authorisation from the Chief of Mission to use any airport in the kingdom following recent missile and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) attacks on airports.

The alert highlighted disruptions at several major Saudi airports, advising US citizens to remain vigilant and carefully assess travel arrangements.

King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh announced a partial reopening on October 23, allowing domestic flights and some international services operated by national carriers. The embassy noted that a limited number of flights normally based at Riyadh airport were operating from Prince Naif bin Abdulaziz International Airport in Qassim.

Meanwhile, King Abdulaziz International Airport in Jeddah and King Fahd International Airport in Dammam remained operational, although both were experiencing some delays and cancellations.

The embassy cautioned American travellers about the possibility of further attacks on airports, airspace closures, flight cancellations and other travel disruptions.

“Please take extreme caution if you choose to use airports in Saudi Arabia,” the advisory stated.

US citizens were also urged to verify their flight departure status directly with their airlines and the relevant airports before travelling.

The warning comes amid continuing regional hostilities involving Saudi Arabia and Houthi forces. The reported attacks on civilian aviation infrastructure have raised concerns about the security of air travel and the potential for further escalation.

The US Embassy advised citizens to remain alert to changing conditions and to take the necessary precautions when making travel decisions within the kingdom.

KARACHI – Veteran Pakistani actress Bushra Ansari has opened up about a distressing experience with Botox treatment, revealing that the procedure once affected one side of her face and altered the appearance of her lips.

Speaking in a recent vlog, the actress recalled undergoing Botox several years ago, saying she was not properly informed about the precautions she needed to follow after the treatment.

Bushra Ansari revealed she slept on the same side of her face where the procedure had been performed. Five to six days later, she noticed that one side of her face had begun to droop, while the shape of her lips had also changed.

The unexpected changes left her worried about her health, and she feared that she might have suffered facial paralysis.

Ansari said she approached the doctor with her concerns, but her complaints were dismissed as unnecessary worry. The experience caused her considerable distress, and she remained at home for several months rather than going outdoors.

Recalling the incident, the actress highlighted the importance of clear communication between doctors and patients, particularly when undergoing cosmetic procedures.

She stressed that medical professionals should listen carefully to patients who report unusual symptoms or complications following treatment instead of dismissing their concerns.

Ansari also emphasised the need for doctors to explain possible side effects and provide clear post-treatment instructions so that patients understand the precautions they should take during recovery.
