Veena Malik, who always makes headlines for the wrong reasons, has been sentenced to 26 years in jail by a Pakistani anti terrorism court.

She along with her husband Asad Bashir Khan and Mir Shakil-ur-Rahman, the owner of Pakistan's biggest media group, Geo TV, has been sentenced to jail for allegedly airing a blasphemous programme. They were accused of airing a programme in May, that played a religious song as a backdrop to Malik and Khan's mock marriage.
