Prominent lawyer and activist Imaan Mazari has been a subject of significant mainstream discussion over her confrontations with state entities. The National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA) filed an FIR against Mazari and her husband, Hadi Ali Chattha, alleging them of posting “anti-state” content on their social media accounts. Mazari’s posts questioning enforced disappearances in Balochistan and accusations against the armed forces for failing to eliminate militancy in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa were seen as inciting “provincial hatred” and as discrediting state institutions. This Monday, the Additional District and Sessions Judge Islamabad, Afzal Majoka, directed authorities to arrest Mazari and her husband for failing to appear before the courts.
