It reads:

Dear Ali,

I read your post about Sharmeen’s sister being harassed by her treating doctor.

I happen to work with the same doctor in AKU. He is a kind, hardworking individual.

I do not disagree that what he did is right but I do not think that how he has been blamed is right at all. It’s as if the individuals with power can do anything they want. He fell victim of Sharmeen’s endless attack to stop so-called feminine harassment to a height where he got fired from his job. I met him the day the office broke this news to him and he was sad enough to make me worried that he might not end up hurting himself. Ridiculed in the hospital and now left unemployed with 4 kids to look after as a result of sending a friend request which could have been easily rejected and swept under the carpet is not justice.

I just want you to understand that everyone is human. These celebs aren’t the only ones who have right and authority to do what they think is right. This should have been resolved in some other manner.

Please spread the word. You were the only one who took a step against Sharmeen’s actions and I think you can make her fix this as well.

What’s your opinion? Was firing the doctor a reckless move?
