Bullying is getting social media attention again. Influencer Hadia Ghaleb’s video has raised controversy about the phenomenon.
Ghaleb posted a video on Instagram to show people how bullying affects her physiologically.
She ended her video, saying, “I will resort to law to protect myself from ongoing bullying”
“My mental health deteriorated. I go to a psychiatrist and take medicine.”
Ghaleb isn’t the first one being bullied.
Earlier, Egyptian actor Mohamed Ramadan was bullied after he posted a photo with his brown-skinned son.
A follower retweeted Ramadan’s post, saying, “Black as his dad.”
Ramadan replied, “I am proud of my colour, my parents and my children.”
The bullying continued after an Iraqi Sheikh described him as ugly black man in a video after a concert in Iraq.
For his part, Ramadan commented on the video saying, “How come that you criticize the color that is created by God. In general, I forgive because I love and respect Iraqi people and all respect and appreciation for all religions.”

The famous actor Sherif Mounir was also criticised for posting pictures of his two daughters on Instagram.
The bullies have described his daughters’ clothes as inappropriate, prompting Mounir to turn to Internet investigators to prosecute anyone who tramples on his family.
On her 80th birthday, the late actress, Ragaa El-Giddawy, was subjected to some inappropriate comments on Instagram where a commentator wrote, “This is the birthday of death”.
The government issued a strict law against bullying.
According to the law, bullies shall be imprisoned for at least 6 months and pay a fine of not less than LE 10,000.
