ISLAMABAD: Islamabad Police on Wednesday arrested female tiktoker named “Dolly” for posting a video by a forest fire in Islamabad’s Margalla Hills. A day earlier, Humaira Asghar, aka Dolly’s video went viral on social media in which she could be seen walking playfully in a silver ball gown in front of a burning hillside with the caption: “Fire erupts wherever I am.” The area was reportedly capital’s Margalla Hills National Park where a number of fire-ignition incidents have been reported in recent past. On Tuesday, another video went viral on social media in which two youngsters could be seen setting the jungle on fire through a lighter. Environmental activist and Islamabad Wildlife Management Board chairperson Rina Saeed Khan took to Twitter to condemn the incident. She said that young people desperate for few followers were setting the jungles on fire in this hot and dry weather, which was indeed a dangerous and devastating trend. On Wednesday, reports emerged that Humaira Asghar was arrested from Abbottabad, as a case was launched against her in Kohsar police station. Online
