Court declares Meera as Atiqur rehman’s wife

Lahore: A sessions court in Lahore has declared actress Meera as the lawfully wedded wife of Faisalabad-based businessman Atiqur Rehman.

Furthermore, the court had rejected the showbiz star’s appeal to deny the ruling over her marriage.

Additional Sessions Judge Mazhar Abbas had declared that the nikkahnama [marriage contract] is authentic and therefore the star is still legally married to Atiq. 

However, the actress, whose real name is Irtiza Rubab, said that Atiq drafted a fake marriage contract and that they were never legally married. 

"I'm not Atiqueur Rehman's wife. He made a fake marriage contract," she said. 

It is pertinent to mention that Atiq accused Meera of entering into another marriage contract with Captain Naveed in 2013 while still being married to him.

She filed a lawsuit against him back in 2018 in a family court.

In 2018, a Lahore family court had also declared film actress Meera the legal wife of Atiqur Rehman. The court in its ruling had confirmed the legality of marriage and sanctioned the evidence submitted in the court.
