#ReleaseIrfanPathan is trending on Twitter on Saturday and everyone thinks it’s former cricket all-rounder Irfan Pathan.
However, it appears that the former Indian player has become entangled in a mistaken identity with the minister of AIMIM Uttar Pradesh, Irfan Pathan Sahab.
The confusion may have occurred because their names had the same spelling.
Here’s how netizens reacted to it:
