Facebook offender in the dock: FIA sees solution in cyber crime law
2016-07-10
[DAWN] The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) recently brought Raja Ubaidur Rehman back from Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
through Interpol.

Rehman had allegedly uploaded objectionable pictures of his former wife on Facebook after creating her fake ID.

’AN’, a working woman, told the FIA Lahore Cyber Crime Wing that she got divorce from Rehman last year. Rehman before leaving for Saudi Arabia for work posted her objectionable/obscene pictures after creating her fake ID on Facebook in order to "create hurdles in her second marriage". AN’s suitor left her after her obscene pictures surfaced.

Acting on her complaint, the FIA investigated the matter and found the charges against Rehman "true". On FIA’s request, Interpol enjugged
Maw! They're comin' to get me, Maw!
Rehman who was working in Saudi Arabia as driver and handed him over to it. The FIA charged Ubaidur Rehman under Section 36 of the Electronic Transaction Ordinance (privacy of information or illegal access to an information system). Under the law he may face imprisonment up to seven years if proved guilty. Rehman has been sent to jail on judicial remand.

There has been at least 50pc increase in Facebook-related complaints filed in the FIA this year compared to 2015.

"Although we have taken up the complaint of the woman in question, in the absence of relevant law the agency faces problems to get the suspect convicted," FIA Lahore Cyber Crime Wing head Shahid Hasan told Dawn.
