The administration has also registered an FIR against the café’s owner, Shujaat Afzal, and the event organiser, Faisal Matloob, according to the reports.

Social media users appeared divided on the issue. While some argued that there was nothing wrong with the event, several netizens demanded that the administration take notice.

ذرائع کے مطابق ایسے ایونٹس کے انعقاد کے لیے انتظامیہ کی اجازت لینا ضروری ہوتا ہے؟ تاہم اس کیفے لانچ کے حوالے سے… pic.twitter.com/PrI6wWHFIL
Journalist Ansar Abbasi wrote, “I request the government and Islamabad administration to take effective action regarding various parks that have become hubs for drug peddling and substance abuse.”
Further, he added, “Additionally, arrangements should be made to prevent inappropriate activities in the parks and to ensure better oversight, so that these places remain safe for families and citizens.”
حکومت اور اسلام آباد انتظامیہ سے گزارش ہے کہ مختلف پارکس جو منشیات فروشی، نشے کے استعمال کے اڈے بن چکے ہیں کے متلعق مؤثر کارروائی کی جائے۔ ساتھ ہی پارکس میں غیر مناسب سرگرمیوں کی روک تھام اور بہتر نگرانی کا انتظام بھی کیا جائے تاکہ یہ مقامات خاندانوں اور شہریوں کے لیے محفوظ رہیں۔ https://t.co/BkMUEBQHJq
