Malala falls for Twitter troll impersonating Ehsanullah Ehsan
Nobel laureate asks PM, army how ex-TTP spokesperson managed to escape incarceration
Malala Yousafzai, the Pakistani who became the youngest Nobel Prize Laureate at 17, is a polarising figure in her homeland, with a certain faction applauding her many accomplishments on the world stage while others remain mistrustful of her fame.
The women rights activist on Tuesday responded to a Twitter handle purportedly belonging to former Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) spokesperson Ehsanullah Ehsan.
In 2012, Yousafzai took a bullet in the face after a Taliban gunman opened fire on her as she was on her way back from her school in Swat, for raising her voice for girls’ education.

Many times celebrities call out trolls who send abusive messages on their social media DMs. This time, Deepika Padukone took to her Instagram story and shared a screenshot of a troll who abused her by sliding into her DMs. The troll sent B tch twice to Deepika and the actor gave him an earful by making his messages public. It s not usual to see DP reacting to trolls, but this time the actor made sure of it.
State Senator Michelle Ugenti-Rita is questioning the fairness of Twitter s policies after a local sports announcer was able to harass her for months from an anonymous account, while she was suspended just days after she revealed his true identity.
Even those bitterly opposed to Ugenti-Rita, a Scottsdale Republican who has pushed legislation critics say would make it harder to vote, agreed that the troll, Josh Miller, had crossed a line in his political criticism by hurling misogynistic abuse. For example, in a post that was less egregious than some, Miller spewed, “Resign you dumb nazi whore.”
Publicly exposed, Miller deactivated his Twitter accounts and resigned his 17-year gig as the in-stadium announcer for the San Francisco Giant s spring training. He had also been employed as an announcer at Desert Mountain High School, which has opened an investigation. Scottsdale Unified School District spokesperson Nancy Norman said that Miller had submitted his resignation Monday.
