‘Is she a lesbian now?’
Online abusers have set up Facebook hate pages attacking TV news anchor Reham Khan and her family after it was rumoured that she had married Pakistani politician Imran Khan.
News of the potential union sparked outrage in Pakistan and trolls have now accused Ms Khan of being a lesbian for stroking a woman’s back, and attempted to shame her for going to parties.
Users have blasted her for wearing short skirts, slated her for dancing with unknown men in public, and branded her daughter a ‘pornstar’ while claiming to be in possession of topless pictures.
One image even claims to show Ms Khan in a sex shop in the UK wearing a pink nightdress, with a collar around her neck and a whip slung over her shoulder.
Mr Khan has today said rumours of marriage were ‘greatly exaggerated’, while his sister Aleema said the family challenged him ‘a few days ago’ over the news and he denied it.
Aleema branded the reports lies, saying they had been concocted by Mr Khan’s political enemies to damage his reputation.
