Brown University student's social media profiles deleted amid doxing

Brown University and the Rhode Island Attorney General have hit back after a first-year student was doxed following the mass shooting on Saturday, that claimed the lives of two students.

Authorities are yet to name a suspect in the case, earlier having detained one person before letting him go.

Far-right influencers on social media like Laura Loomer claimed that Mustapha Kharbouch, a Brown University student, could be linked to the shooting. It began when the university removed his bio from the website.

Amid the doxing, Kharbouch appears to have deleted his social media profiles, which has only added fuel to the fire.

His LinkedIn account as well as his X account have been deleted. The LinkedIn link leads to a ‘page doesn’t exist' message. The news of his X account being taken down was shared on social media.
