Sami Khan was nominated for an LSA for the best actor for his work in Khudgharz.

LAHORE (Dunya News) – TV star Sami Khan posted on his Instagram story that his account has been suspended by Twitter over “violation of Twitter Rules” stating reason for impersonation.

Sami Khan posted on his insta story saying, "Seriously? @Twitter?" He also posted the email from Twitter. Adding to it, he said, “So, Twitter has suspended my twitter account. If this is the case then bye bye Twitter”.

Earlier, it was filmmaker Nabeel Qureshi whose account had been suspended. Before Nabeel, it was noted journalist Fasi Zaka whose account was suspended due to mass reporting of ‘impersonation’ by a group of trolls who called themselves BMJ Youth.

A group of trolls has been targeting prominent accounts that are not verified on twitter. Apparently if there is a mass reporting of an account which is not verified, Twitter suspends them.

Sami has recently been in Thailand shooting for a special project and he was recently seen in the TV show Inkaar with Yumna Zaidi and Imran Ashraf. Sami was recently acclaimed for his work in the hit show Aisi Hai Tanhai and Khudgharz.

He was nominated for an LSA for the best actor for his work in Khudgharz, a TV show where he starred with Aaminah Sheikh, Mansha Pasha and Ghulam Mohiyuddin.
