Hareem Shah under Scotland Yard’s protection now

TikTok star Hareem Shah has been given protection by Scotland Yard after receiving threats from some people,  police have confirmed.

A London police spokesman confirmed that Hareem Shah, whose real name is Fiza, had made a complaint to the police she was being chased and also given threats. She also alleged that she is being blackmailed, the spokesman added.

Hareem Shah had approached the police after having a strained relationship with some people she had met and stayed with them in Manchester.

It should be noted that last week some videos and photos of Hareem Shah were released on social media through anonymous accounts.

The controversy began after a group of British Pakistanis approached members of the Pakistani media alleging that Hareem had stolen £6,000 in Manchester and fled the city to London.

Hareem, however, denied stealing the money, saying the accusers should go to the police and investigate the matter, instead of defaming her on social media through abuse, threats and blackmail.
