Hareem Shah seeks protection from UK police

WEB DESK: Hareem Shah has recently obtained police protection in London due to harassment and threats from individuals who accuse her of swindling them out of over £5,000, as disclosed by the social media sensation an interview with a local news outlet.

A London police spokesperson said that Shah had filed a complaint regarding individuals who were allegedly blackmailing, pursuing, and threatening her.

The controversy started after a group of British Pakistanis approached Pakistani media members, alleging that Hareem had stolen their £5,000 to £5,500 in Manchester and fled the city for London.

However, Hareem denies stealing any money and says the accusers should go to the police against her and get her investigated, instead of maligning her on social media and through threats and blackmail.

“If I had really stolen money from anyone, wouldn’t they have gone to the police and tried to have me investigated? said Hareem.

By initiating a defamation lawsuit against those who have criticized her on social media, Shah is optimistic that appropriate measures will be taken.
