Clarifying to all the accusations against him, Rahim said, “When I clicked on a video clip that was received in a WhatsApp group, there was nothing obscene in it. All I saw was a lucky wheel which had entitled me to an attractive prize. After rotating the wheel, I was asked to share the clip with five others in order to claim the prize”.

Fazal claims that he has landed in a soup after falling prey to the ploy and sharing the video.

Local MLA’s has reacted sharply to this development and has condemned Fazal for his act.
