Woman Targeted in Social Media Campaign After Helping Arrest Father’s Murderer
Maham Amjad, a Pakistani woman based in the UAE, has faced over 300 social media accounts targeting her after helping authorities arrest the main suspect in her father’s murder.
She claims that the “vicious campaign” began after the arrest of Syed Taqi Haider Shah, who she believes killed her father, Mohammad Ahmed Amjad, in 2008.
Amjad has been using social media to lead a campaign for justice for her father’s murder, and played a key role in Shah’s arrest by identifying his profile on LinkedIn.
