Shahbaz Taseer lights up Twitter with account of Taliban captivity
The eldest Taseer was held by the Taliban for nearly five years so we can't blame anyone for getting a little sentimental. As wishes poured in, Shahbaz's wife Maheen Taseer tweeted a picture of his cake, expressing gratitude for his return.
The Miracles of Allah! The day that used to be the hardest for years is the happiest one today! Happy birthday my Braveheart @ShahbazTaseer

Shahbaz has been exceptionally active on social media since his return. Last month, he took his followers by surprise when he decided to conduct an impromptu Q&A session using the hashtag #AskST.
Keeping the trend alive, he tweeted a picture of a cake which seemed a little more to his own liking (a Manchester United-themed cake).

In another tweet, Shahbaz gracefully responded by saying he was nothing but proud in every sense of the word about his past.
