An Indian YouTuber has triggered widespread outrage over his alleged derogatory remarks against Turkish women, with unconfirmed reports indicating that he may have been detained by local authorities. Malik SD Khan, popularly known as ‘Malik Swashbuckler,’ faced severe backlash for a series of videos in which he allegedly made sexually explicit and offensive comments about Turkish women.

In multiple videos shared on Instagram and YouTube, Malik allegedly made degrading and offensive remarks about Turkish women, often speaking in Hindi, presumably to prevent the woman he was exploring the country with from understanding the content.

However, Turkish social media users quickly caught on and flagged the videos.

In one of the videos, he can be seen entering a Turkish shop and aggressively questioning the staff about the absence of the Indian flag, then proceeding to hurl abuse at the shopkeeper. In another video, Malik refers to the woman in a derogatory way.

According to a report by Turkiye Today, Turkish authorities detained Malik Swashbuckler last week in connection with the offensive videos he posted on social media. However, police have yet to issue a statement regarding the incident.
