Arrest warrant issued for 'One Pound Fish' singer
LAHORE: Shahid Nazir, the man who rose to fame after his song ‘one pound fish’ went viral and became a global hit is now wanted for defaulting on a 6.6 million rupee loan.

According to sources, a leasing company in Lahore filed a petition before the banking court claiming that Shahid Nazir had taken out a Rs 6.6 million loan and failed to repay the loan amount or the installments.

The leasing company sought the courts help three months ago following which the court ordered Shahid Nazir to appear before the bench.

Having failed to appear before the court or submit his reply after multiple reminders, the bench has ordered that Shahid Nazir be arrested and presented before the court on 29th September.
