Well done FIA
Accused of uploading obscene content
ISLAMABAD: A senior civil judge has sent Asim Khan Sikandar on a 14-day
remand for faking a
social media account of
media anchorperson Nadia Khan and uploading obscene content on it.
FIA presented Sikandar before the court after expiry of his four-day remand. After
making the
fake account, he allegedly started sending blackmailing letters to the anchor’s house. He is also facing charges of defaming the anchorperson’s father, Aslam Khan.
It is a job very well done by the FIA. In many countries of the world, the menace of hacking
social media accounts has been curtailed but unfortunately it is unchecked in Pakistan. The National Assembly has recently passed a bill to stop it but it is pending in the Senate.
The practice of mixing and merging body parts of different persons in computer programmes to present an obscene photo is highly condemnable but goes on unchecked on
social media. Anybody can term anyone thief, dacoit or whatever he wants with impunity. **ble people are often defamed on
social media without fear of any accountability. There is a need for tough steps against those who try to malign the people on
social media.
