As childhood abuse and sexual harassment have taken the country by storm after little Zainab’s drastic murder, renowned celebrities have come forward proclaiming what had happened to them in their childhood with stories unthinkable to a commoner. On that note, media personality and entrepreneur Frieha Altaf has also shared her own painful story.
Though not new to hear from a girl living in a developed and well settled family, Frieha was also abused by her cook at the age of six.
“My parents took action but everyone remained silent as if it was my shame. At 34 I realized how it had impacted my life. The only shame is keeping SILENT.”
