Sindh IT Minister has denied reports of being TikTok star Hareem Shah's mysterious husband from the PPP.

The rumours spread as the Sindh IT minister wears a Rolex watch which was also seen in a picture shared by the TikTok star showing the hands of a man and woman on her Instagram earlier.

The picture had sparked rumours of an engagement. It was later deleted.

“I think this news has no basis. The whole news is told by Hareem Shah herself,” Talpur said, adding that the whole party was looking for the PPP member who married Shah.

He said the news is based on lies and Shah did it to get attention as she was anonymous for a long time.
