ISLAMABAD: The additional sessions judge in Islamabad has issued a notice to the FIA Cybercrime Wing, seeking its reply by June 9 on a plea to register a case against US blogger Cynthia De Ritchie for launching a campaign against the late PPP chairperson on social media.
Judge Jahangir Awan heard PPP, Islamabad President Shakeel Abbasi's plea, wherein the US blogger has been accused of launching a campaign against Benazir Bhutto on social media.
It was further stated that the PTA had been requested to delete the tweet from social media and also the FIA to register a case on which no action had been taken.
Therefore, the court should issue orders to register a case.
The court issued a notice to the FIA on the petition and sought a reply. Earlier, Additional Sessions Judge Abida Sajjad issued a notice to police for not registering a case on the request of a citizen, Waqas Abbasi, and sought a reply by June 8.
