Did Samiya Hijab leak her own videos? Explosive accusations rock TikTok star in latest online scandal

Time of India17-06-2025
Samiya Hijab, a TikTok personality known for her viral controversies, is facing a fresh wave of explosive allegations, this time from fellow influencer SK, who claims she staged her own video leak for publicity. The scandal, which had simmered down in recent weeks, has flared up again following a tell-all video posted by SK.

Influencer SK accused Samiya Hijab for blackmailing a man
SK, who was previously in the spotlight over a leaked video involving influencer Minahil Malik, accused Samiya of blackmailing a man she had allegedly enticed through fake intimacy. According to him, the man transferred over Rs2 million after a series of supposed video calls, believing the two were in a serious relationship. SK alleged that these calls were secretly recorded and later used as leverage for extortion.
He also claimed that Samiya never intended to marry the man and instead used the material to manipulate both him and the narrative on social media. The accusations took a darker turn as SK suggested that Samiya herself leaked the now-infamous footage to gain attention, especially following her appearance in a music video by singer Umair Awan.

In a stunning rebuttal to Samiya's past claims that the viral content was generated using artificial intelligence and that she was the victim of cybercrime, SK insisted the videos were real and deliberately disseminated. He went even further, accusing Samiya of previously engaging in escort services in Islamabad—claims that remain unverified and legally unproven.

The video concluded with SK urging Samiya to withdraw her complaint to the FIA Cybercrime Wing, stating that her narrative was a strategic ploy for financial and social media gain. Samiya, for her part, has not responded to these latest accusations, leaving the public and her followers in suspense.
As tensions mount, the controversy highlights the blurred lines between digital privacy, manipulation, and fame. In a world where virality can be weaponised, the situation serves as a cautionary tale about the dangerous games being played on social media platforms, and the real human costs they carry.

5 of cyber gang that sent 8cr into 30 Pak bank accounts nabbed

Lucknow: Balrampur police on Saturday night uncovered an international cyber fraud and terror funding racket involving cryptocurrency and cross-border transactions. It arrested five people for allegedly funnelling over Rs 8.15 crore to 30 Pakistani bank accounts using the Binance app. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now According to police, the transactions took place between Sept 2024 and July 2025. The mastermind, identified as Suspier Chaudhary, a resident of Bihar's Nawada district, was operating the network from New Delhi. He was arrested near Kodri Ghat bridge in Balrampur, along with co-accused Pradeep Kumar Singh from Fatehgarh (Farrukhabad), and Satyadev, Lavkush Verma, and Jai Prakash also from Balrampur. According to Balrampur SP Vikas Kumar, the gang used over 200 mule bank accounts created under fake or rented identities. Chaudhary managed at least four WhatsApp accounts to coordinate operations. Two Pakistani bank account details were found on his mobile phone. The funds were converted into cryptocurrency and routed using Chinese and Singapore-based mobile applications, prompting police to contact foreign agencies for further investigation. Each mule account was tasked with receiving Rs 1 lakh daily, which would be withdrawn via ATMs. Account holders were paid a 15% commission. The locals rented their bank accounts for Rs 10,000 per month, unaware of their usage in cyber fraud. The withdrawn cash was then redeposited via cash deposit machines and routed abroad through apps. "The apps—some of which include names like Udhar Loan, Rupee Factory, Quick Loan, Credit Bee, Evirtualpay, Revolut, Daisysms, Cybersource, Monzo UK, Nicepay, Pay Labs, Zelle, Ebl Gateway, and others—were distributed through Play Store, Telegram links, and WhatsApp messages," said Kumar. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The victims, often in urgent need of small loans, would download these apps and submit personal documents such as bank account numbers, Aadhaar, and PAN cards. Once uploaded, the apps would auto-transfer small amounts (e.g., Rs 1,200) into their bank accounts, only to demand Rs 2,000 or more within 7 days. "If repayment was delayed, the apps would misuse the access granted during installation to retrieve contact lists, photos, and personal files. Victims were then subjected to blackmail, abuse, and threats of public shaming, coercing them to repay inflated amounts," he said. The scam proceeds were not transferred back to the fake loan apps. Instead, Chaudhary and his associates used bank accounts of individuals hired on commission. These accounts were accessed with ATM cards and SIMs collected covertly. The funds were withdrawn in cash and deposited into Cash Deposit Machines (CDMs) into middlemen's accounts, who then converted the money into USDT (a stable cryptocurrency) via the Binance exchange. Through Peer-to-Peer (P2P) crypto transactions, the fraudsters laundered the money abroad, often to Chinese handlers running the scam from offshore locations, the district police chief said. "Anil admitted to receiving a 10% commission from each transaction. He retained 5% for himself and distributed the remaining among account providers and agents like Pradeep, Satyadev, Lavkush, and JP Yadav, who supplied bank accounts, ATM cards, and SIMs. These details were often delivered anonymously via buses or porter services to Delhi, helping maintain operational secrecy," said the police.

Who is Trisha Chatterjee? Indian-origin immigration lawyer who said ICE gave her Taco Bell number during client crisis — watch video

Trisha Chatterjee (Picture source: LinkedIn) Trisha Chatterjee, an Indian-origin immigration lawyer in Ohio, has alleged she was given the number of a Taco Bell outlet when she called ICE for urgent client support. Chatterjee posted about the incident on TikTok, where it went viral and ultimately led to help from another ICE official. But she says the larger issue lack of clear access to immigration authorities continues to cause serious harm to her clients. "I called and they answered and they said, 'Hello, Taco Bell?' And I said, 'Taco Bell?' And the guy who was working said, 'Yeah, Taco Bell. Ma'am, you called me," Chatterjee recalled. "I was in such disbelief," she said. "So, I called the ICE officer back, just really frustrated with what had just happened. He says, 'Oh, I'm sorry. I was trying to lighten the mood and make you laugh.'" ICE has denied the accusation. Homeland security called it a 'lie and a smear.' Chatterjee stood by her version of events. Who is Trisha Chatterjee? Trisha Chatterjee is an Indian-origin immigration lawyer based in Greater Cincinnati and Dayton, Ohio. She graduated from Miami University in 2020 and the University of Dayton School of Law in 2023. She works with the law office of Emily Feliz Garcia, a small immigration firm in Springdale. Before this, she worked at Abdallah law offices. For the last two years, she has handled immigration cases, especially those involving clients detained at the Butler County Jail in Ohio, which has a contract with ICE. Chatterjee was trying to submit "stay of removal" applications—urgent paperwork that can pause deportation for clients with pending immigration cases. ICE requires these to be submitted in person at the Detroit field office, but she hoped to file them locally in Blue Ash. After being unable to reach anyone by phone or email, she finally spoke to an ICE officer who gave her a phone number that turned out to be for Taco Bell. When she called back, the officer reportedly said he was trying to make her laugh. She posted a video about the incident on TikTok, which gained over 38,000 views. Many users sympathised, and one even helped her connect with a helpful ICE official in Blue Ash, who is now assisting her. Chatterjee said the larger problem is the lack of access and communication with ICE. She also highlighted how a stricter bond policy is making it harder for immigrants to stay out of detention during legal proceedings. Bonds can cost up to $50,000 and must be paid upfront. According to Chatterjee, some clients are abandoning their asylum cases or choosing to self-deport out of fear. She mentioned recent local arrests of people attending ICE check-ins, which has only deepened anxiety in immigrant communities.

84 enforced disappearances, 33 extrajudicial killings reported in Balochistan in June: Rights group

Paank, the Baloch National Movement's Human Rights Department, said on Sunday that Balochistan in Pakistan witnessed 84 cases of enforced disappearances and 33 cases of extrajudicial killings in the month of June. In its recent report titled 'Balochistan Human Rights Report – June 2025', Paank has documented cases of particularly enforced disappearances and extrajudicial killings. Paank noted that the data mentioned in the report is based on verified reports from June 2025 and demonstrates the worsening human rights situation in Balochistan. According to the report, numerous cases of enforced disappearances and illegal detentions were reported across 14 districts of Balochistan in June, including incidents from Karachi and Islamabad. The districts of Kech and Mastung in Balochistan recorded the highest number of disappearances. A total of 84 people were forcibly disappeared in June, as per the report. Among them, many were held without any legal process, and 32 individuals were later released after suffering both mental and physical torture while in custody. In the report, the Paank accused Pakistani forces of carrying out extrajudicial killings without a pause. According to the report, the Pakistani military is reportedly detaining and killing individuals without any legal process, often for unknown reasons. Paank said that 33 cases of extrajudicial killings were reported in Balochistan in June. It said, "These actions reflect a disturbing trend of unchecked violence by state authorities." "The repeated use of enforced disappearances followed by extrajudicial killings has become a hallmark of state policy in Balochistan. Victims are often taken without any legal process and later found dead, bearing signs of torture. The silence of institutions and lack of judicial oversight have allowed this crisis to grow. For families, the trauma is twofold—first the disappearance, then the discovery of mutilated bodies, often dumped in remote areas. This ongoing pattern reflects a deep human rights emergency that demands urgent international attention," said the Paank report. It noted that the abductions of Baloch youth from Karachi and Islamabad have also become increasingly common, which has sparked concerns among families and human rights defenders. It said that the racial profiling case of Baloch students remains pending in the Islamabad High Court despite repeated calls for action. According to the report, Baloch activists Mahrang Baloch, Gulzadi Baloch, Beebow Baloch, Sibghat Ullah Baloch, and Beeberg Baloch remain in custody despite appearing before the court. The Paank said that the Baloch activists were handed over to the police on a 10-day physical remand under newly fabricated terrorism charges instead of being released and said that the "move appears to be a clear tactic by the authorities to silence peaceful activists and leaders, and to keep them locked up without fair trial or evidence."
