One of the images showed visible bruising and swelling around her right eye. Alongside it, she wrote:“This is me. Yes, this is my story - my life destroyed by a violent man. I leave my justice to my Allah.”

In another post, Manzoor spoke about the emotional toll of domestic abuse and the betrayal she experienced.

Manzoor's courageous posts quickly gained attention online, with thousands expressing outrage and support.
