• Adil Raja referred to four actresses by their initials including Kubra Khan and others.
• Social media users immediately understood whom he was referencing.
• PTA and FIA ordered to take down offensive material about Kubra Khan from the internet.

After accusing some military generals of using prominent Pakistani females as bait to film politicians from various political parties in Pakistan for the purpose of blackmail, Major (retired) Adil Raja apologized to actress Kubra Khan on Friday.

The former Pakistani Army colonel posted on Twitter and stated, “My intention was never to target any women but to pinpoint a bigger problem pertinent in the system. I am profoundly sorry for the distress caused by speculations arising due to me giving initials, which didn’t include yours. I again appeal to avoid speculations without proof.”

The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) and the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) have been ordered by the Sindh High Court (SHC) to take down offensive material about Pakistani actress Kubra Khan from the internet.

Adil Raja referred to four actresses by their initials (AK, SA, MK, and MH), but social media users immediately understood to whom the retired army officer was referencing. Following Adil Raja’s video, people on social media began posting pictures of these women along with disparaging remarks.

Sajal Aly, Mehwish Hayat, Mahira Khan, and Kubra Khan—four prominent Pakistani actresses—reacted angrily to Adil Raja’s remarks and the subsequent character assassination on social media. So much so that Kubra Khan threatened Adil Raja with a defamation lawsuit in London unless he withdrew his statement within three days and issued a public apology.
