Pakistani social media influencer and TikToker, Hareem Shah, caused a stir on Twitter as she reacted strongly to the arrest of former prime minister Imran Khan in the Toshakhana case.
Just before Khan’s arrest, Hareem Shah warned that she would release all the pictures and videos from her phone on social media if he was apprehended.
سننے والے سن لیں اگر عمران خان صاحب کو گرفتار کرنے کی کوشش کی گئی تو اپنے فون میں موجود تمام پکس اور وڈیوز سوشل میڈیا پر اپلوڈ کردوں گی۔#ImranKhan

Following Imran Khan’s arrest by Punjab Police from his Lahore residence, Hareem Shah tweeted in defence of the former prime minister, praising his efforts to bring positive change to Pakistan, care for the less fortunate, and confront the elite class and mafias.
خان کا جرم یہ کہ وہ اس ملک کی تقدیر بدلنا چاہتا۔ خان کا جرم یہ کہ وہ غریبوں کے بارے میں سوچتا ہے۔ خان کا جرم یہ کے وہ اس ملک کی اشرافیہ کو ایکسپوز کرتا ہے۔ خان کا جرم یہ کہ وہ مافیا کے سامنے سر نہیں جھکاتا۔#ImranKhan

Hareem Shah also made a pointed reference to another former prime minister, Nawaz Sharif, questioning why he was able to live freely in London despite allegations of corruption, while Imran Khan, who had established three hospitals for free cancer treatment, was facing what she deemed an unfair punishment.
پاکستانیوں کا پیسہ لوٹ کر بیرون ملک جائدادیں بنانے والا لندن میں مزے کررہا ہے اور فری علاج والے تین کینسر ہسپتال بنانے والا غیرمنصفانہ سزا بھگت رہا۔👏🏻

In another tweet, Hareem said “we are not idiots”, everyone knows that Khan has been arrested at the behest of “absconding thief” Nawaz Sharif and his fraud daughter. She said that a government minister is now requesting her not to release his videos and saying that it was not in their power to release Imran Khan.
وڈیوز اپلوڈ مت کرنا، ہمارے ہاتھ میں کچھ نہیں، حکومتی وزیر کی منیتیں۔ ہم سب بیوقوف تو نہیں۔ سب کو پتہ عمران خان صاحب کو چور بھگوڑے نواز شریف اور اسکی جعلساز بیٹی کی خواہش پر گرفتار کیا گیا۔#ImranKhan pic.twitter.com/mAJz6MdFgP

Hareem Shah’s tweets sparked discussions across social media, drawing attention to the political tensions and divisions in Pakistan’s landscape. However, as of now, the situation remains dynamic, and the broader implications of Imran Khan’s arrest and Hareem Shah’s claims are yet to be fully understood.

It is pertinent to mention here that controversy queen Hareem Shah continued to remain in headlines as this time she claimed leaking an alleged clip of Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah. Shah, who has a history of openly threatening politicians and public figures, shared a tweet on May 31, saying “A clip of Rana Sanaullah is out”.
