Actress Ayeza Khan is facing widespread criticism for her statement following the horrifying murder of 17-year-old TikTok star Sana Yousaf, with many accusing her of victim-blaming and showing a lack of empathy.
In a now-viral Instagram Story, Ayeza wrote, "Let's all understand the pros and cons of social media, especially when it comes to our security. Keep your addresses, car numbers, regular spots, and children's details private. It's not safe, it's just not safe.
Share less. Times have changed. Recognize that the audience you have today isn't the one you personally chose. It's from all over the world.
Let's take responsibility for what we share. May Allah protect us all and keep us in good company. Ameen."
Social media users quickly criticised the timing and tone of her message. Critics argue that by emphasising digital privacy instead of addressing the gender-based violence that led to Sana’s death, Ayeza inadvertently shifted the blame toward the victim.
One user commented, "Ayeza Khan once again effortlessly portraying her lack of brain cells. Stop blaming women for getting murdered and START BLAMING MEN FOR MURDERING them."
