The committee was tasked to probe the complaint of a female student, Farzana Jamali, against the SSBU vice chancellor and lecturer. Jamali had revealed that a lecturer namely Aamir Saeed Khattak had long been subjecting her to sexual harassment that almost compelled her to commit suicide however she didn’t. According to the findings of the committee, students had complained about harsh the behaviour of lecturer Aamir Khattak, with most female students feeling comfortable in his presence. Sexual Harassment Committee, which already exists, should play its active role to mitigate such issues,” the report added. “The case is not related to sexual harassment as no such evidence was found,” the report suggested.
