Actor Farhan Akhtar has 'permanently' deleted his personal account on
social networking website Facebook.
The 44-year-old has become the latest
celebrity to quit the social network in the wake of the Facebook data breach
row. However, he did not mention the exact reason for quitting the platform.
"Good morning. This is to inform you all that I have permanently deleted my
personal Facebook account. However, the verified Farhan Akhtar Live page is
still active," Farhan tweeted on Tuesday morning.
Facebook is facing the
heat after Cambridge Analytica, a British consulting company, was accused of
harvesting data of up to 50 million Facebook users without permission and using
the data to help politicians, including US President Donald Trump and the Brexit
campaign.
