Putting up pornographic pictures of schoolteachers
Teachers accuse DTE of forging their pictures and releasing them on the web.
Teachers accuse DTE of forging their pictures and releasing them on the web
MIANWALI: According to teachers at the Government high secondary school for girls in Kundian, an administration worker forged and distributed vulgar pictures of dozens of students on the internet and then accessed their personal details to blackmail them.
According to a staff member at the school, the person responsible was the trainer of female teachers at the school who had been deployed by the Kundian Education Department cluster. “He was conducting training workshops for teachers and also had access to all of their record files on our computer in the administration office,” the staff member said.
Education department officials have started an inquiry on a written application submitted by the Anjuman Tahafuz Huqooq Shehrian and traders and others organizations in Kundian. According to the affected students and teachers, Fateh Muhammad had been appointed as a directorate of technical education (DTE) and was in charge of training teachers at the school. The education department has provided computers and other facilities in the cluster centre and also appointed two DTEs a woman and a man to deal with teacher training before the next semester. DTE Muhammad tampered with the administration records and photos of the teachers on duty and pasted obscene pictures of them on the internet. “He called all of us individually, because he got our phone numbers from the records,” said one of the teachers Nadia. “He began to black mail us after telling us to look at the website he had posted,” she said.
The pornographic website allegedly showcases the entire female staff of the girls school. “We have called in an IT expert and he said that it was very easy to doctor and tamper with photographs,” said a school administrator.
The eleven affected teachers have filed charges against the DTE and elicited the support of local traders and organisations in the district to have him arrested. “He is the only one who could have done this because he has access to all our records and sits in the admin room,” said one of the teachers, adding that Muhammad had called all of them up and threatened them. “He asked all of us to meet him and threatened that if we didn’t he would print out the website pictures and humiliate us,” said school teacher Sadia. Members of the Anjuman Tahafuz Huqooq Shehrian and traders and others organizations of Kundian submitted an application to the education department stating “The Daska DTE is challenging the honour of the residents of this area and we are prepared to die for the honour of our mothers and sisters.”
Fateh Muhammad has said that he did not upload any site and that the staff at the college was hatching an elaborate conspiracy against him. “This is an attempt to malign my reputation and have me fired,” he said, adding that he was being targeted because he was a strict teacher and did not tolerate any excuses from the female staff regarding absences.
Teachers at the school have stated that they will pursue the matter with the police.

Current legal system: He will walk away.

You choose?Recommend
both current legal and shariah system are useless without proper investigation!!!!Recommend
My God :ORecommend
Firstly LOL. I doubt both sides. He wouldn’t take such a big risk. And if it were true he’d be on the run and not available for interviews. Recommend
i believe the admin, because story is unbelievable. why would he blackmail all of them and i doubt a admin have that much computer competency in pakistani system to able to accomplish that.Recommend
huh? I won’t comment on an article itself rather would like to raise a question. Why is the name ‘Muhammad’ chosen for the man who was accused of such indicant activity?
I don’t know who ever wrote this article, but I believe we have loads of other names that could be used instead. It may not matter to few people but being a Muslim I would never associate this name with someone who hasn’t done a good stuff anyways.
My suggestion is to please take care of using such name which some way represents the sacred people from history of mankind.
Cheers,Recommend
hmm..a strange case though… If the man has posted the picture on website then why would he call the females directly to blackmail them…Second its an easy case for IT experts. Match the porn pictures with the original pics of the females in the school record.Such softwares are available which can easily detect the pirated pictures as well as the cyber crime experts can find out the IP address from where these pictures are uploaded to the website …………
But I dont think it will happen…….its Pakistan……….sab acha hai..Recommend
@Klues. Sharia. All the teachers will get 80 lashes or stoned to death. This is your sharia. Even when a women get raped. Forcefully, she is considered guilty.Recommend
Hammad, you’re a ignorant, ALLAH’s laws are never unjust, if you’re a Muslim, you have to believe in them.Recommend
Are we the Judges of the Case here.. Until and unless the final investigation comes up why we are so quick in making decisions. But strict measures should be taken against any of the parties. Defaming the name of Pakistan again… Recommend
By the Way, this town “Kundian” is famous for the “Urenium Enrichment Plant” ! CIA/RAW/MOSAAD/Black water must be behind this “saazish” to malign Pakistan………;)Recommend
@Umar. This is the reason you have been exploited in the name of religion. You never dare to question the illogical laws which have been misinterpreted to protect the vested interests of ruling class including mullas.Recommend
I hope justice is done….
@Klues and Hammad
Do you even know what is the meaning of word ‘Shariah’?Recommend
The website will tell itself who loaded the photographs and from which IP and at what time.
Cyber crimes are no more a mystery. The IP address can be traced within minutes. Recommend
This man must be punished. He has done a horrible thing.Recommend
One needs to investigate both sides of the story. The victims could each be asked for statements to see if there were any contradictions or inconsistencies in their versions. IT forensics experts can easily follow an electronic trail and use sophisticated software to find the ‘footprint’ left by the perpetrator or traced through the ‘backend’.
On January 7th 2009, a prominent British newspaper published a now notorious front page article, which alleged that Islamic extremists were using an online forum on an Islamic site to compile a ‘hit list’ of prominent British Jews.
By the end of the following day, an investigation conducted by a freelance journalist had successfully identified (through electronic forensics) a self-styled Jewish ‘anti-terror expert’ who, according to the newsapaper, had uncovered the ‘evidence’ of an alleged Islamist plot to attack a number of prominent Jewish figures as the author of the comment on Islamic site forum on which the entire fake story was based.

If this blogger comes across the DTE; he better run to save his life from me. He will be soundly beaten.
What is a failure in the Punjab Government is a seriousness to control corrupt and demerited people. Just to make money the man has adopted a most wicked and reprehensible method.
He is supposed to be a teacher, ustad and maybe an aalim and this is what he resorts to, to make a quick buck. What is the Board of Technical Education, LEAs and the MNA plus MPA of the area doing? Obviously enjoying the luxury of the GoP dole outs.
Salams and best wishes. Recommend
it’s strange that most of you are asking for that man to be punished. do you even know if he’s guilty? you’re just jumping to conclusions.
And those talking about Shariah and the current legal system, both fail without evidence or an investigation.Recommend
Shariah is no joke and is the only solution to our problems. One must understand that Islam is not just about punishments and whips and stones… It is a comprehensive system which give it’s citizens such an enviornment where they can fulfill their social and economic needs easily. Yes punishments are strict in Islam because the system provides you such an enviornment where man/woman can easily sort out their needs & instincts. It is justified to stone a fornicator who is married because the Islamic State provided him with such an economic enviornment where he can marry easily not just one time but four times yet he choose to fornicate.
One more thing which is important to understand is that The basis of Khilafah State is taqwa of Allah (swt) and it will built it into hearts & minds of people through media & education. It’s basis will not be what we see in today’s world.
For those who think that Shariah is man made… We can discuss with them purely on rational basis that Allah (swt) is the creator of everything, Quran is the speech of the creator and Muhammad (saw) is the messenger of Allah.

Wow, how often have you provided that advice to the men of pakistan that are worst globally when it comes to ogre-ing women, sexually harrassing them, killing them in the name of honour and religion, actively discriminating against them and treating them like second class citizens, burying them alive, marrying them with Quran… Thats for sure isnt stright (whatever that means) to hell… Girls befirending boys somehow makes them more probable contenders to hell than boys.. You are so typical of the vast majority of dubious, dodgy and hypocrite male youths/ men of this land of pure..
@ Osama – You are a delusional being mate… Which planet do you live in when you say this:

In fact the more economically strong a male is the more likely of his chances to “fornicate”. Its people like you that need to get out more, get clearer understanding of human beings, societies, culutres and see the world a bit before advising “marrying 4 times” to avoid fornication..! Really you are a comic..!!!Recommend
