The Director General, FIA has been instructed by the Interior Minister A. Rehman Malik, to monitor and check these stories and messages and take necessary action under the Cyber Crime Act. Strict action is being taken against all the culprits in next few days as the FIA has already done a lot of work on it. Simultaneously, Interpol/Lyon has also been requested to identify those email addresses and websites registered abroad which are being used for such stories.
A special campaign under the directions of the Interior Minister, Senator A. Rehman Malik, has been launched against those who were spreading ill motivated and concocted stories through emails and text messages against the civilian leadership. Similar campaign has also been initiated against the proscribed organizations which are using Internet for malicious propaganda against the security forces.
It is pertinent to mention here that under the Cyber Crime Act, the violators can be punished for 14 years of imprisonment besides confiscation of the property. Any Pakistani living abroad and violating the provisions of the Cyber Crime Act can also be charged under the Act and is liable for deportation to Pakistan.

What the hell is this?
This is what happens when a rookie gets to learn something new. Just recently we had this cyber crime act come up and now we face stupid laws just like this one. The thieves, the murderers, the corrupt walk freely on the streets and you will be sentenced 14 years of jail for expressing your disgust about the facilities like load shedding that the government provides to you.

I think this decision is made by GOV against those peoples who write bull shit against GOV leaders personally but when some one raises his voice against some government failure issues like loadsheeding and fuel prices then defiantly it should not be prohibited by government.
If government does this then this decision is not good and not welcome by us and people of Pakistan

Does this mean that writers of shows like “Hum sub umeed say hain” will also be put in jail for 14 years?
The govt should address the cause and not the symptom. Why are people making fun of Zardari? That is the question they should be asking.
