In the latest developments, Zainab Abbas, a well-known presenter from Pakistan, has found herself entangled in a legal dispute. An Indian lawyer by the name of Vineet Jindal has lodged a formal complaint against her for some tweets she posted nearly a decade ago that were perceived as anti-India.
According to reports from Pakistan’s prominent channel Samaa TV, Abbas has left India and is currently in Dubai. This decision came after the lawyer informed the Cyber Crime Department of the Delhi Police about his filing against the Pakistani international.
The controversy revolves around alleged offensive remarks made by the 35-year-old presenter about a specific religion and the country back when she used the username “Zainablovesrk” on the now X platform (formerly known as Twitter).

It’s worth noting that Abbas, a renowned TV personality, had obtained her visa from the Indian embassy to attend the ongoing ICC Cricket World Cup 2023, where the 1992 Champions are considered strong contenders for a top-four position. Pakistan, led by their prolific batter and captain Babar Azam, began their campaign with a victory against the Netherlands and are set to face Sri Lanka in Hyderabad on Tuesday.
