According to Faryal, security personnel informed her that banners with controversial messages were not allowed inside the venue and requested her to leave the banner outside if she intended to enter.
Faryal further noted that the security officials were merely adhering to regulations outlined in the terms and conditions of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) tickets, which strictly prohibit the presence of posters, banners, or placards containing religious, political, or racial content.
