LAHORE – A former editor of a Pakistani daily is being trolled by social media users for posting a fake picture of ex-prime minister Nawaz Sharif.
Shaheen Sehbai, who previously worked as Group Editor of The News, has nearly one million followers on different social networking sites.
The veteran journalist recently shared a picture showing ousted PM Nawaz Sharif kissing the hand of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad Bin Salman on his Facebook account and Twitter handle. However, the picture was found to be photoshopped.
Well, social media users do not spare anyone, and Mr Sehbai ended up getting trolled for his post including strong criticism towards the PML-N president who is currently visiting the kingdom.
Even as the journalist has deleted the tweet, he’s still receiving criticism on Facebook. Social media users came down heavily on Mr Sehbai to mock him for his post.
In the original picture, Mr Sharif is kissing his mother’s hand.
Shaheen Sehbai is a Pakistani and American citizen, currently, residing in the USA.
