Adil Raja and other fugitives wanted by the FIA
A global assault on social media miscreants’ has been initiated, and the agency has turned to Interpol for help.
To protect national security and prevent the dissemination of harmful information, the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has launched a crackdown on persons located abroad who are active in defaming national security institutions on social media.
According to Express News, the FIA has moved quickly to identify 361 social media accounts linked to such activities and has chosen to arrest the criminals responsible for them.
The FIA has asked Interpol, the International Criminal Police Organization, to help track down and extradite any opponents who may be hiding away in other countries.
The FIA plans to follow the accounts of the accused and file proceedings against them under the Cybercrime Act by working with Interpol.
An FIA official addressed the issue, stressing that cases would be lodged quickly and that appropriate legal procedures would be taken against the perpetrators. After cases are opened, the FIA will liaise with Interpol to extradite the suspects back to Pakistan to stand trial.
Interestingly, the FIA has asked Interpol to issue a red notice for the arrest of Major (ret.) Adil Raja, a YouTuber who is suspected of spreading disinformation about national security agencies.
The FIA believes that Adil Raja will soon be apprehended and extradited to Pakistan to face justice there.
In addition, the FIA is formulating a thorough strategy for legal action against those who engage in cyberbullying and cyberharassment. Protecting victims of cyberbullying and making the Internet a more secure place for everyone are the dual goals of this campaign.
Raja responded to the news on Twitter, saying that he believed the major goal of the “puppet government” in pursuing him was to instill a sense of persecution dread among Pakistanis living abroad, journalists, and activists. “These scare tactics will also fail like the rest of the idiotic tricks by the fascist rulers,” he insisted.
