Controversy queen Rakhi Sawant is back in the news! And this time, Rakhi is cashing in on the shocking news of Pakistan's social media celebrity Qandeel Baloch being killed allegedly by her brother. Here's what Rakhi has to say...

According to media reports, controversy queen Rakhi Sawant has alleged that Qandeel Baloch was raped by her brother Wasim who later killed her.

Rakhi Sawant was quoted saying she feels Qandeel's brother 'raped' Qandeel and 'ran away'.

Rakhi Sawant also urged the Pakistani police to do a detailed investigation over Qandeel's death.

News agency ANI reported that Rakhi Sawant wants Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif to 'learn from PM Modi'.

This is not the first time Rakhi Sawant has jumped at the chance of using a tragic event for gaining publicity. In April, when the world was reeling under the shock of TV actress Pratyusha Banerjee having committed suicide, Rakhi Sawant used the opportunity to seek attention.

The controversial starlet called for a ban on ceiling fans to curb suicides. Pratyusha had allegedly hung herself from a ceiling fan and this gave Rakhi Sawant the opportunity to make the bizarre demand.

Rakhi had held a press conference in Mumbai where she announced, "I want Prime Minster Narendra Modi to ban all ceiling fans and request people to use table fans and air-conditioning units as most people, who commit suicide, end up hanging themselves from fans. I will donate around 5000 table fans to those who cannot afford it."

Pakistan's social media celebrity Qandeel Baloch, who was a controversial figure due to her fame coming from suggestive photos and videos in a conservative nation, was killed allegedly by her brother in Multan in Punjab province, becoming the latest victim of "honour killings" that plague the country.


The 26-year-old actor-cum-model was killed in central district of Multan last night, police said on Saturday.

Police said apparently she was killed by her brother named Wasim, who has fled after the incident.

"She was suffocated to death by strangulation. It seems to be a case of honour killing but we are investigating it," district police chief Azhar Akram said.

Her real name was Fouzia Azeem but she chose Qandeel Baloch as her pseudonym after stepping into modelling.

She had received threats from her family to quit modeling and her provocative appearances on social media. Her brother had been threatening her over her Facebook posts and videos, said the police.
