Pakistani actor, model, and reality TV star Humaira Asghar Ali was found dead in her apartment in Karachi on Tuesday. According to a report in Dawn, the actor was living on rent, and her decomposed body was discovered after the authorities broke the locks to enter the property. Humaira's body has been was shifted to a medical centre for a post-mortem examination.
A police official, South DIG Syed Asad Raza, confirmed the news to the website, saying that the 32-year-old actor was found dead in her rented flat located on the fourth floor of a building in Ittehad Commercial, Phase VI. The DIG also shared that Humaira's body had been lying in the apartment for several days. However, police surgeon Dr. Summaiya Syed stated that the body was in a 'very advanced stage of decomposition.'
The police sprang into action after Humaira's landlord filed a police complaint, accusing her of not paying rent since 2024. The court then ordered the flat to be vacated. It was only after the court's order that the police entered the flat and discovered Humaira's body.
The police are not suspecting any foul play in the matter, as all the doors of the apartment were locked from the inside. The news of Humaira's death comes shortly after another Pakistani TV actor, Ayesha Khan, was found dead last month in her apartment.
Humaira's last Instagram post dates back to September 30, 2024. She had been absent from social media for the past nine months. The post was a collection of photos of herself, where she was seen posing in a beige and orange salwar kameez.

Drake and Bobbi Althoff fallout explained as the duo rekindles their friendship two years after dating rumours and podcast drama

Drake and Bobbi Althoff's relationship started with major internet attention when the rapper appeared on The Really Good Podcast in July 2023. The awkward, dry-toned banter between them went viral almost instantly, helping Bobbi skyrocket from a niche TikToker to one of the most talked-about podcast hosts online. For many, it was the first time seeing the Hotline Bling appear in such a stripped-down, casual setting and it worked. Why did Bobbi Althoff delete her Drake podcast episode? But just as fans were rewatching clips on loop, the full video mysteriously vanished. Bobbi deleted the Drake episode only a month after it aired, and no real explanation was given. That decision quickly fuelled speculation online, with many assuming some kind of behind-the-scenes drama had gone down between the two. Theories about a fallout started circulating on social media, made worse when Bobbi was reportedly kicked out of Drake's SXSW afterparty for showing up without an invite. The duo also ended up unfollowing each other on social media, sparking further speculations. Bobbi Althoff & Drake unfollowed each other on instagram and she seems to have deleted any content from her Drake interview on socials. 🤔 When Bobbi sparked Drake dating rumours after divorce filing The timeline only got messier. In February 2024, Bobbi Althoff filed for divorce from her husband, Cory, with whom she shares two daughters, while also revealing that they had separated in July 2023. That's the exact same month her interview with Drake dropped, leading fans to connect dots that may or may not be real. Romance rumours flooded TikTok and Reddit, but Bobbi was quick to shut them down. She even posted a private DM exchange with Barstool's Dave Portnoy, writing, 'I did not want to do this podcast in the first place, and now so much negativity is coming from it.' Bobbi Althoff shuts down Drake romance speculation—sort of Despite the rumours, both Bobbi and Drake stayed publicly silent about each other for months. The only hint of closure came during a January 2024 interview with Keke Palmer, where Bobbi briefly addressed her experience with the rapper. 'He's a very nice person,' she said, offering neither confirmation nor denial, just a neutral statement that didn't add much to the mystery. Drake tells Bobbi to 'unblock' him in surprise Instagram comment Then came a surprising twist. Recently, Bobbi shared a screenshot of a comment Drake left on one of her Instagram posts: 'UNBLOCK MY NAME FROM YOUR COMMENTS.' Her dry response? 'I'll consider it.' While no one knows why his name was blocked to begin with, the interaction was enough to get fans speculating all over again. It's unclear if the comment was serious or playful, but it was the first public acknowledgement between the two in years, suggesting maybe their alleged beef is cooling off. Who is Bobbi Althoff? Bobbi Althoff is a social media personality and podcast host best known for her deadpan interview style and rapid rise to fame. Originally gaining popularity on TikTok for her satirical 'mom content,' she pivoted into podcasting in 2023 and quickly went viral thanks to interviews with celebrities like Drake, Lil Yachty, and Offset. Her show, The Really Good Podcast, has since become one of the internet's most discussed platforms for awkward celebrity interactions.

Your comments are proof why Renukaswamy's family needs justice: Ramya slams Darshan fans

Actress Ramya is once again facing a wave of online trolling for speaking out in support of Renukaswamy's family — the victim in the ongoing murder case linked to actor Darshan . Last week, the Supreme Court strongly criticised the Karnataka High Court's decision to grant bail to Darshan, questioning the rationale behind the order and suggesting it nearly amounted to an acquittal. Sharing a screenshot of this development, Ramya took to Instagram to demand justice for Renukaswamy's death, and wrote: 'SC is a ray of hope for the common people of India- justice for the family of Renukaswamy.' However, her post did not sit well with Darshan's fanbase, many of whom flooded her comments section with abusive and hateful messages. Unfazed, Ramya responded with a sharply worded Instagram Story that read: 'To all the DBoss fans — Welcome to my Instagram :) Your comments are proof why Renukaswamy's family needs justice!' This isn't the first time Ramya has been targeted. Last year, shortly after Darshan's arrest, she had posted, 'No one is above the law. No one should take the law into their hands.' That too had triggered a wave of trolling from his supporters. Meanwhile, Darshan — currently out on bail — has been on a temple run, recently spotted visiting multiple temples across Karnataka. He had also traveled to Thailand last week to shoot portions of his upcoming film Devil, and returned to Bengaluru two days ago. Ramya and Darshan have shared the screen in two Kannada films — Datta and Snehana Preethina.

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.
