JAKARTA - The star of the Loose Women talk show, Saira Khan, recently announced that he has decided to stop practicing Islam. However, the former panelist's choice sparked a series of death threats.
This mother of two children shares posts on her Instagram Story. He described what happened.
"Because of the harassment and threats I have received," began Saira, "I have reported this matter to the police as it is considered a hate crime."
"I am truly saddened that my decision to live my life that I choose caused other people to hurt me."
The Apprentice star then asked his followers: "How do my life choices influence their choices?"
This happened after Saira shared an enigmatic post on her Instagram when she discussed tolerance. During that time he faced dire threats from strangers.
Saira decided to reveal herself to stop practicing Islam in public. The reason being, he kept receiving terrible messages from the trolls scolding him about how he lived his life.
"This week I received a nasty message from a troll, which makes me think it is time I declared that I am not a devout Muslim," Saira told The Mirror this month.
"It took me until I was 50 years old to find the courage to say it. I am doing it now for my own well-being."
The 50-year-old said her name and background often lead people to make wrong assumptions about their faith and lifestyle. So, he thought it was time to explain the truth.
"I want to be honest and feel free to live my life by my own rules," continued Saira. "I feel that by saying this as a public figure, I will no longer accidentally confuse or inadvertently hurt other Muslims."
The TV personality added that he does not represent any Muslim community.
