Afzal Majoka, the Additional District and Sessions Judge, is allegedly shown in a video circulating on social media with two women. On June 27, Majoka denied petitions to suspend the sentences of former prime minister Imran Khan and his spouse in the iddat (illegal marriage) case.
The assertion is untrue. The judge is not the man in the video.

A screenshot from a private video featuring a man and two women was released on Facebook on June 29 under the title “The Honourable Judge Afzal Majoka.”
Users posted further screen grabs from the video, saying the pictures were of the judge.
Check your facts: A false statement about the judge in the Iddat case is circulating on social media.
Note: In order to preserve the privacy of the people whose identities are featured in the film, Fact Check has decided not to include links to the web allegations.
Reality
The individual in the video is not Judge Majoka, according to two lawyers and a district and sessions court administrator in Islamabad.
The district and session court administration superintendent in Islamabad, Muhammad Siddique, informed Fact Check that the allegations made online were untrue.
Geo Fact Check then got in touch with Imran Khan’s attorney, Murtaza Hussain Turi, and Khawar Farid Maneka’s attorney, Zahid Asif Chaudhry. In the iddat case, both attorneys had recently appeared in the judge’s court.
