Malala Yousafzai Trolled For 'Wearing Skinny Jeans & Heels At Oxford University

Women's rights activist Malala Yousafzai has been trolled for 'wearing jeans and heeled boots' during her first week at Oxford University.

The Nobel laureate was criticised after she was seen in an unverified photo, published in Pakistan media, apparently swapping her shalwar kameeze for skinny jeans, ankle high boots and a bomber jacket.

The 20-year-old narrowly avoided death in 2012 after being shot by the Pakistani Taliban for her outspoken campaigning over girls' rights to an education.

Malala went on to win the Nobel Peace Prize for her global campaigning work and a place at the Russell Group university, where she is studying philosophy, politics and economics.


But she became the target of abuse over the weekend after an apparent image of her was shared on the Facebook page of Pakistani forum Siasat.pk on Saturday.
Some people even compared her to porn star Mia Khalifa despite keeping her 'duppata' on her head as she has done since she arrived in Britain five years ago.

Yaseen Khan wrote: "She is the player of American game . I feel very embarrassed to say that she is Pakistani."

And UxMan MaAn wrote: "Next Mia Khalifa."

While Shaiq Sirajuddin Shah wrote: "It's not particularly important for men but WOMEN SHOULDN'T wear those tight jeans because they get exposed."

Another vitriolic message, which was posted on Twitter and re-published in the Pakistani media, said: "That was the reason the bullet directly targeted her head long time ago."

See How People travel to Serbia for sex with dogs at animal brothels for as little as £60 (N28,000)

                        

A growing number of sick tourists now travel to Serbia for sex at ‘animal brothels’, it has been claimed.

Serbia’s capital,  Belgrade is said to be a hotspot for ‘zoophiles’ who enjoy sex with animals such as goats, sheep, donkeys, dogs, cats, geese and cows.

The eastern European city can be reached via a direct flight from London, but an animal rights group claims most groups come via organised ‘bus tours’.

Online adverts offer animal sex from between 70 and 150 Euros (£60 to £135) with visitors paying an extra 50 Euros (£45) to film themselves, it is claimed.

An investigation into the horrifying trend was broadcast by TV channel RTL recently.

It included an image of a dog apparently wearing fish-net suspenders and high heels.

Pavle Bihal, who runs an anti-animal cruelty group called Leviathan, wants the clubs closed down.

He said: “We have information about a club, which is actually an apartment, where all this happens.

“We are currently waiting for the location to be confirmed so we can report all to the police.”

The highest number of animal sex tourists come from Germany, Holland, Sweden and Great Britain, Bihal’s group claims.

There are thought to be a number of specialised estates and stables in the countryside catering to their depraved tastes.

Farmers who run the ‘brothels’ don’t see anything wrong with the setup, according to Leviathan. (MirrorUK)

Corps Member In Imo Shot Dead For Refusing To Let Go Of His Phone To Robbers

Tragedy struck in Owerri, the Imo State capital, on Monday after yet-to-be identified gunmen shot dead a serving corps member, Ekene Uwaoma.

This is just as a graduate of Electrical Engineering, University of Ilorin, Miss Taofeeqah Oloriegbe, died on Monday – five days to her convocation.

Punch Metro learnt that the Imo incident happened around 8.30pm at Ama-wire Junction, when the corps member and his friend, identified simply as MacDonald, were returning to their residence.

Uwaoma, 23, was a 2016 graduate of History and International Studies from the Imo State University, Owerri, and was undertaking his one year National Youths Service Corps programme in Ogun State.


He hailed from Umudo-Anara, in the Isiala Mbano Local Government Area of the state and was the second son of his parents.

He was said to have come to the state to see his mother, Mrs. Mary Uwaoma, when he was murdered.

His friend, MacDonald, told our correspondent on the telephone on Tuesday that he was with the deceased when the gunmen waylaid them and demanded their mobile phones.

MacDonald said, “We were returning home from where we went to buy food. Suddenly, four boys bearing arms stopped and asked us to surrender our phones. I quickly gave them mine, but Ekene (Uwaoma) refused to surrender his phone.

“They started struggling and I ran away. They shot him on the chest and ran away. They also shot into the air to scare people away.”

MacDonald disclosed that the corps member was rushed to the Federal Medical Centre, Owerri, where doctors confirmed him dead.

“The gunmen didn’t go with his phone. It was a pity. This was the first time somebody was killed in my presence. I am heartbroken. His picture keeps appearing in my mind. I can’t bear it,” he added.

A family member, who did not want his name in print, told our correspondent that Uwaoma’s death had thrown his family and village into mourning, adding that the deceased’s mother had yet to recover from the shock.

The state Commissioner of Police, Chris Ezike, who confirmed the death to our correspondent, said the command had swung into action to apprehend the fleeing murderers.
