Scandal
On 24 July 2023, the Chief Security Officer of Islamia University was arrested by police at a checkpoint as he was actively attempting to flee. A search of his vehicle led to the discovery of various drugs and medicines commonly used for sexual pleasure.[7] The police also discovered more than 5500 obscene videos and pictures of women, many of which were of university staff members and students.[8] A 5-member body to investigate the scandal was formed by The Higher Education Commission (HEC) on 28 July 2023.[9] Punjab interim Chief Minister Mohsin Naqvi also formed a 3-member inquiry committee to investigate the sale of drugs in the university.[10]
