"In Pakistan’s television landscape, often dominated by melodrama and sanitized morality, “Case No. 9” has emerged as a rare beast: a prime-time drama that dares to confront the unspoken. Episode 11 of the hit series, already gripping audiences with its central storyline of Seher’s courageous legal battle against her rapist—a powerful businessman named Kamran—takes an even bolder turn. It introduces a subplot so politically and socially volatile that it’s rarely touched on screen: the weaponization of blasphemy accusations against religious minorities in Pakistan."
