Nothing escapes the scrutinizing eyes of social media users. The latest to fall prey to their venom is cricketer Mohammed Shami who up till recently had managed to stay safe from religious bigotry.?
Shami was mercilessly trolled by Muslim fanatics after he uploaded a few snaps of his wife, Hasin Jahan and himself on Facebook.
The pictures looked every bit beautiful but for some, it only aroused feelings of hate.?
FB
And the hateful comments descended on his post instantaneously.?
And while Facebook users showed their ugly side, Twitterati jumped to defend the cricketer and showed the bigots their rightful place.
Good on Shami and his loyal fans to speak out against those whose intolerance is the reason why our nation is trudging its way towards modernism.?
