SKARDU: PML-N vice president Maryam Nawaz on Wednesday claimed that cameras were installed in her cell and bathroom while she was in jail, Geo News reported.

In an interview, Maryam Nawaz said that she has been to jail twice, and if she revealed details about the treatment meted out to her, "they will find no place to hide their faces".

Maryam is currently leading PML-N’s election campaign for the November 15 Gilgit-Baltistan election.

“I do not wish to speak about this today. I don't want to hide behind these incidents after the struggle that I have begun. I do not want to play the victim. I don't want to cry at this point about whatever happened.”

She said there will be a time to talk about these things and that she had seen for herself what happens to women in Pakistan.

"If Maryam Nawaz's room can be broken down, if she can be arrested in front of her father for speaking the truth, if cameras can be installed inside her jail cells and bathrooms, and if she can be targeted personally, then no woman in Pakistan is safe."
