Episode description

Announcing: Society Girl -- A Tale of Sex, Lies and Scandal, the new book by Saba Imtiaz & Tooba Masood-Khan (Roli Books, 2024). The book explores the circumstances around the death of the poet and former civil servant Mustafa Zaidi in October 1970, and the ensuing scandal that became a fixture in Pakistani newspapers. This new investigation into a story of twisted motives and murderous intentions, of it-girls and playboys, of class and culture, and a press out for blood and salaciousness, tells a far more complex tale than anyone could have possibly imagined.

On this special episode of Notes on a Scandal, Saba and Tooba are interviewed by Sanam Maher, the author of The Sensational Life and Death of Qandeel Baloch, about their book Society Girl: A Tale of Sex, Lies and Scandal.
