London, November 14: Former Pakistani cricketer Shahid Afridi has invited fresh trouble for himself after making another controversial comment on Kashmir. The 38-year-old former cricketer, while addressing students at the British parliament, said that "Pakistan doesn't need Kashmir...it can't even take care of its four provinces."
The comments made by Shahid Afridi can lead to embarrassment for its new government and Prime Minister Imran Khan. Check Shahid Afridi's Comment in the Video Below:
Afridi can be heard saying in the video that "I say Pakistan doesn't want Kashmir. Don't give it to India either. Let Kashmir be independent. At least insaniyat (humanity) will be alive. Pakistan doesn't want Kashmir... It can't even manage its four provinces..."
However, this is not the first time that Afridi has commented on the complex Kashmir issue. Earlier this year, he tweeted on the matter and wrote, “Appalling and worrisome situation ongoing in the Indian Occupied Kashmir. Innocents being shot down by oppressive regime to clamp voice of self determination & independence. Wonder where is the @UN & other int bodies & why aren’t they making efforts to stop this bloodshed?” leading to outrage on the social media platform.
