This is extremely disheartening and shameful. The way many Indian celebrities use social media to target Pakistan and religion is well-known. If that’s the case, many of them shouldn’t be allowed either. However, they’ve chosen to target a woman and issue threats. Shame on you, India. Stay resilient, Zainab. We stand with you.
Zainab Abbas was the sole female sports anchor who obtained a visa to cover the World Cup from our side. No Pakistani fans or YouTubers were granted visas to Pakistani supporters for the Pakistani team in any capacity.
Zainab’s social media history was scrutinized, and when they couldn’t find anything recent, some individuals dug up two tweets from 9 or 10 years ago where she was simply bantering with an Indian. Zainab deleted those tweets a long time ago, which likely indicates that she no longer supports those opinions.
