Mollywood superstar Mohanlal is the latest celebrity victim of online hackers. On Tuesday morning, the fans and followers of the actor found to their shock that his official blog, The Complete Actor, displayed scandalous messages supporting Pakistan’s stance on the Kashmir issue. Later, it was discovered that some hackers who claimed to be Pakistanis were behind the cyber-attack.
The messages on the site said that the team Cyber Warriors were behind the attack. Much to the fans’ relief, the site was restored after 20 minutes.
Apparently, the hackers used the blog to send their message across. It read: “We (will) never forget what you did against humanity. In Jammu and Kashmir, millions of people are dead. Indian forces killed Kashmiri families, killed innocent children. But no one cared! Your bank accounts, credit cards, servers are in danger.” The last line of the message said, “Dear admins, we just wanted to publish this message. Muslims are not terrorists”.
However, when contacted, a source close to Mohanlal said, “They didn’t hack the site, but they only attempted it. The message from the hackers appeared only for three minutes. The moment the alert appeared, we could tackle the issue and the site was restored immediately.”
