LAHORE – Pakistani artist Armeena Rana Khan has condemned the ghastly attacks on Muslims in New Zealand’s Christchurch mosques in her latest tweet.
Coming forth deeming the incident a ‘mass slaughter of Muslims’, the Janaan starlet said that the usage of terrorism affiliated with Muslims is extremely condemnable.
She also called out western media’s usage of the word ‘die’ for 49 people who lost their lives in the attack and went on to state that they were instead ‘slaughtered in cold blood by a terrorist’. “No guys, 49 people didn’t “die” they were slaughtered in cold blood by a terrorist. Terrorism isn’t just reserved for Muslims. You need to fix the wording and don’t downplay this pls,” she posted.
