Social media sensation Qandeel Baloch, who was murdered by her brother last week, has been deleted off Facebook and Instagram.
As per Facebook policy, any account which belongs to a deceased individual is automatically made into a memorialized account where friends and family can share memories on the timeline.
However, “pages with a sole admin whose account was memorialized will be removed from Facebook if we receive a valid request,” states Facebook’s help centre.
Since Qandeel Baloch was the sole admin of her page and many may have reported her account after her death, her page has been removed from the social network. Her official account on Instagram – owned by Facebook – has also been deleted.
Qandeel Baloch’s claim to fame were her infamous Facebook and Instagram uploads which many found objectionable.
The 26-year-old, popular was strangled to death by her brother at her Multan residence. He was arrested by police in Dera Ghazi Khan and confessed to killing his sister in the name of ‘honour’.
All that remains of her online persona is her Twitter handle.
