Adil Raja, a former military man, and YouTuber has responded to actor backlash after his first video went viral, in which he made several statements against the former top leadership of the Pakistan Army.
Raja, who lives in exile in the United Kingdom, claims his video sparked an unwelcome social media frenzy. Raja began by condemning the trolls and smear campaigns that flooded in after his first viral video.
As the video progressed, Adil mentioned a source, whom he identified as a former military officer, who warned him to be wary of legal proceedings in Britain as powerful quarters prepare a “Plan B” to silence the dissenting voice.
Delving into details about his vlog that becomes the talk of the town, Major (r) Adil pointed out that the trolls on social media and defamation campaigns aim to divert attention from the key issue – that is showbiz persons being used as ‘honey traps’ by the establishment.
The self-acclaimed geo-political analyst claimed to be a ‘champion of women’s rights’, saying he always opposed such trends, and this time it’s his enemies’ gambit to malign him for being the thorn in their flesh.
Addressing the backlash and fierce response from the showbiz fraternity, he said “I have not mentioned any name, rather use initials.” Narrating Kubra’s response and threat about a defamation suit, he called out the Ehd-e-Wafa star over hurling the threat about ‘leaked videos’.
“What leaked videos are you talking about,” he asked, reiterating that he never mentioned any leaked clips.
Raja then chastised Kubra, saying he never mentioned her name and that she clearly blames him for the uproar. He then brought up Kubra’s post, in which he asked the YouTuber to share evidence about the claims, and in response, he cross-questioned the actor to share evidence where he named her in the viral vlog.
Raja, who appears frustrated in the middle of the video, was then questioned about his alleged statement, to which the actor demanded a response within three days. Justifying his use of initials, he then challenged Kubra to demonstrate that initials indicated her name.
He also accused the actor of defaming him on social media, claiming that he is being named and dragged into the #MeToo movement. Before concluding his response clip, Adil stated that he has discussed all matters with his lawyers and is prepared to go to court.
On Monday, several trolls launched smear campaigns against Pakistani divas, citing Raja’s first video, which elicited a strong reaction from actors.
