ISLAMABAD: In a swift and startling move, TikTok personality Imsha Rehman has deactivated her social media accounts following the circulation of an alleged explicit video that went viral.
The footage, which quickly spread across multiple platforms, sparked widespread condemnation, with many online voices calling for the video’s removal and questioning the limits of privacy in the digital age.
According to media reports, the video shows Imsha Rehman in what appears to be a compromising position with a friend. The swift spread of the footage ignited a heated debate among social media users, with some criticizing Imsha Rehman for what they interpreted as a bid for attention, while others condemned the invasion of her privacy.
In the wake of the controversy, the Tiktoker addressed her followers, sharing the emotional toll the incident has taken on her. “The backlash has been overwhelming,” she said, expressing frustration with the relentless scrutiny public figures face online.
Her deactivation of Instagram and TikTok accounts signals the profound impact of the negative feedback.
This incident follows a similar scandal involving TikToker Minahil Malik, whose own viral video sparked a comparable response just a week prior.
Social media users are increasingly grappling with questions around digital ethics, consent, and the human cost of viral fame as these incidents continue to unfold.
