Qamar Javed Bajwa faces misbehaviour during France vacation. In a disgraceful incident, Pakistan’s former Chief of Army Staff, General Qamar Javed Bajwa, was heckled while on vacation in France.
In a viral video, Pakistan’s former top general faces a shocking incident in which an Afghani-speaking man verbally abused him in front of his wife in his native language while the couple was spotted on a roadside in Annecy.
The man, whose identity was not revealed, hurled insults at Gen (r) Bajwa. In response, the former COAS warns the man to turn himself in to the cops, but the man appears unmoved and continues to insult him.
As the video went viral, users translated the man’s words, in which he expressed his rage at Bajwa for alleged human rights violations, wrongdoings, and assisting the Taliban in destroying the war-torn nation.
The video also drew the attention of journalists and activists on social media, who condemned the incident. Some called it disgraceful to abuse someone who is with family, while others criticized former Prime Minister Imran Khan, who has constructed a narrative against General Bajwa, blaming him for his ouster and plunging the South Asian nation into political and economic turmoil.

Pakistan Army Chief was apprehended by an angry man in France. The only threat that Bajwa was able to make was that he’d call the police if the man filming him didn’t go away.

This is very sad and condemnable. #Bajwa is being humiliated in the streets of France. But this is a lesson for all those people who are currently intoxicated with power. Small period of power cruelty and then a lifetime of shame and humiliation.#ImranRiazKhan#قاسم_کے_ابا pic.twitter.com/oAsN2S45Df

Shame on PTI trolls & SiasatPk for posting & celebrating this shameful video of Afghani guy cursing Bajwa & his wife in France. I criticize Bajwa’s policies but he was Pak army chief & why the heck some Afghani dude is attacking him & his wife. That’s not something to celebrate.
