TikTok star, 23, accused of killing man in crash after he had affair with her mum says he made fake porn images of her
A SOCIAL media star has claimed that one of the two men she is accused of killing in a car crash made fake porn of her.
Mahek Bukhari, 23, from Stoke told a court that Saqib Hussain, 21, was “unstable” after his affair with her mother, Ansreen, ended.
The TikTok influencer is one of eight people on trial for murdering her mum’s secret lover and his friend Mohammed Hashim Ijazuddin.
She said that Mr Hussain had attempted to ruin her reputation by making ‘deepfake’ pornography of her.
Deepfake software is able to convincingly replace a person in a video or image with another person’s likeness.
The young woman said Mr Hussain was doing “everything he could” to break her “perfect” family life before his death.

She added that the fake porn was shared in an attempt to get her mother’s attention.
Ms Bukhari told Leicester Crown Court: “I was embarrassed. It was ruining my reputation. Saqib already admitted it was him.
“He had mentioned at the end of 2021 that he had been making images of me. He admitted making it to me via text messages.
“He wanted attention so my mum would reply to him. He was posting and commenting on my live videos saying ‘your mum is having an affair’. He was doing it to try and get my attention.”

When she confronted her mother about the claims, she initially denied it, but later admitted to the relationship and that Mr Hussain had sexual images of her.
She said: “She told me about the relationship and wanted to end it and get on with her life.
“Before she had made a mistake and felt really bad about it. It broke me finding that out because she loves my dad.”
She added she had only met her alleged victim once before he died in a crash on the A46 in Leicestershire in February.
The court heard that Mahek, Ansreen and six others had planned to ambush Mr Hussain and steal his phone to prevent the affair becoming public knowledge.
It was alleged that the young man had been blackmailing his ex-lover for £3,000 to prevent it from coming out.
They allegedly lured him to a fake meeting where they promised he’d collect the money.
While heading to the fake meet-up, Hussain and his pal, who was driving, were chased by two vehicles, the court heard.

The chase ended when their vehicle smashed into a tree and erupted in a huge fireball.
All eight defendants deny the murder charge and an alternative charge of manslaughter.
