〔即時新聞／綜合報導〕巴基斯坦最大的音樂盛事之一，「索里斯音樂節」（Solis Festival）於上週六（15日）舉辦。音樂節邀請各國的表演者來到巴基斯坦，原是當地居民引頸期盼的活動。然而這次的活動卻因為假票流竄、現場衝突、舞台倒塌，並且有女性表示在當中受到騷擾等種種事件而黯淡落幕，主辦單位表示「不得不停止這次活動」。
據《英國廣播公司》（BBC）報導，舉辦於巴基斯坦首都伊斯蘭馬巴德（Islamabad）的索里斯音樂節因一系列的混亂導致活動緊急喊停，首先是假票猖獗導致進場人數比預期要高上許多，購買到VIP票的民眾也不滿被擋在場外及遭阻止上VIP舞台，紛紛翻過路障、爬上舞台。過度擁擠及超過承重導致舞台坍塌，許多人被壓傷甚至失去知覺。多名女性事後表示，她們在昏迷及混亂中受到騷擾。

社群平台Instagram帳戶名為Shanza的女性提到，舞台高度近7英呎（約2.1公尺），她摔落後約一分鐘毫無知覺。當她掙扎著站起來時，有人搶她的包包，並有人摸她跟騷擾她。她質疑主辦單位，「你們打算怎麼辦？要如何補償身體上的疼痛、精神創傷及性騷擾？」一位推特（Twitter）用戶也表示，索里斯的主辦者應該負全責，他們「完全地疏忽大意」。
15.02.2020 its just 30 minutes in, we’re at the front dancing and I BLACKOUT what I realize next is the entire vip lounge COLLAPSING. it was almost 7 feet high and i lost consciousness for a minute bec ig that’s just how your brain responds. i remember as soon as i regain consciousnesses half a minute later i’m in trauma, unaware of what just happened, me, my sis, my brother and my friends are helplessly trying to get up, i swear i couldn’t figure out what’s happening, ALL I REMEMBER IS ME STRUGGLING TO GET UP and a guy starts snatching my bag, （i was wearing a crossbody bag and it was in my neck） i literally thought I’d suffocate or my neck’s going to break and the guys there pick up the grill and start pushing it back while we’re stuck in it. my sister’s screaming and so is my friend. i look at @saishaa.g and her leg’s stuck underneath the grill and some guy’s on top of her. my sister’s phone fell somewhere there and it’s lost now bec somebody picked it up. we’re panicking, getting stamped upon and literally no ones helping bec in this moment these filthy frustrated assholes get a chance and start touching, groping and harassing us, it took me a moment to realise what they’re doing bec I was in absolute hysteria. my body was aching bec of the injuries. i was almost numb @solisfestival continued and the DJs didn’t even stop the music. my lil brother helped us all get up with his forehead bleeding and then we rushed straight out. what we see out is literally a group of men following a girl who’s walking her way in, a guy legit slapping a girl who accused him of harassing and a whole lotta other shit. we couldn’t walk. idk how we made it to the car but not a single person was there to HELP. we went straight to the hospital, my tissues and muscles of the leg are torn, my bestfriend got her leg fractured, my sister’s hands were bleeding and her thighs bruised. A TRAGIC SOLIS NIGHT ONCE AGAIN! WHERE ARE YOU NOW @solisfestival? IS THIS THE SAFETY YOU PROVIDE FOR A 10K TICKET? HOW TF ARE YOU PLANNING ON COMPENSATING THE PHYSICAL PAIN AND MENTAL TRAUMA, SEXUAL HARASSMENT, THE GRAVE LOSS OF A LIFE AND THE PAIN WE’RE STILL GOING THROUGH?

儘管有至少數十人指責主辦單位規劃跟管理不善，但對方僅表示，他們已經採取了所有的預防措施。「我們根據受出的門票數選擇場地跟預備安全措施。但我們低估了非法出售的假票數量。」、「對於活動被其他人破壞我們感到非常抱歉。由於避免將您的安全保障置於危險當中，我們不得不停止這次的活動。」
據了解，一張VIP的門票要價11000巴基斯坦盧比（約2329元新台幣）。
DEAR ISLAMABAD What was borne from a love of music and wanting to share a piece of the international music world to Pakistan, Solis provided entertainment that didn’t exist and became a community based on peace and unity, bringing together homegrown businesses that supported our economy and put Pakistan on the map. Despite all the challenges of putting together such an experience in Pakistan （the things you don’t see behind the scenes like finding the right speakers, pyro, the security gates that need to be built from scratch, to convincing our artists that Pakistan is indeed safe and beautiful）, we made it happen. Not once, not even 3 times in 2019, but for the 4th time yesterday in Islamabad till the incident hours after doors opened. We chose the venue and our security based on the number of tickets sold and made arrangements based on this. We warned against fake tickets on numerous occasions. However, we underestimated the sheer volume of thousands of “fake tickets” that were being sold illegally. These people were denied entry, but broke our barricades and forced themselves in, climbing on VIP platforms which couldn’t take the weight and destroyed our stage putting everyone’s safety at risk. To those that believed in us and came to genuinely enjoy the show, we are deeply sorry that this experience was ruined by others. We know that you came far and wide and we know how much you were looking forward to this event as we were too. For you, our true fans, we absolutely could not put your safety and security at risk and had to stop the event. What some of you didn’t see was the further damage these individuals caused after we shut down the event. Crores Of damage have set us back even further. WE are a community. WE are responsible for changing mindsets- together! While we will hold on Solis indefinitely in Islamabad, we will NOT let this define us. We will LEARN and PERSEVERE and keep giving Pakistan an experience they haven’t had before, much like we have done in the past. We will NOT let the actions of a few decide for the rest of us. We will be back.
