The German market attacker sent me these vile, obscene messages that may point to his REAL motive. The Left-wing media should stop rushing to conclusions: KHADIJA KHAN

The messages were bizarre, rambling and sometimes obscene. They landed in my inbox at all times of the day and night, ranting about the West, ex-Muslim refugees and ex-Muslim women. I didn’t know the man who sent them. He claimed to be a Saudi emigrant and an anti-Islamist activist, though most of what he sent was incoherent and abusive. Every time I saw his name in my inbox, I shuddered.
For the most part, I didn’t read the messages, and generally I just deleted them unopened. But when I saw the news of the Christmas market massacre in Magdeburg, Germany, on Friday, my blood ran cold. I recognised the name of the suspect all too well. Taleb Al Abdulmohsen, a 50-year-old man thought to be a psychiatrist, has been arrested over the deaths of four women and a nine-year-old boy, after ploughing his BMW into a mass of people on a busy street. More than 200 were injured.
Over the past 18 months or more, Abdulmohsen has targeted me with countless vile, threatening and intimidating messages. Nothing I saw in them ever gave me an inkling that he was planning to commit this terrible crime, or I would of course have forwarded everything to the police.
But the grim truth is that women like me, who grew up in Muslim families and have rejected Islam, are constantly subjected to online abuse. I am quite sure that, if I had reported Abdulmohsen’s emails and social media rantings, I would have been ignored.
It’s horribly common for me to see hatred directed at me online. The messages often start by calling me a ‘wh***’ or a ‘prostitute’, accusing me of ‘selling my body to white men’ before unleashing a barrage of threats about what my fate will be in this world and the next.
