The National Cybercrime Investigation Agency (NCCIA) in Pakistan has summoned three Norwegian nationals in connection with an alleged online defamation campaign targeting businessman and Pakistani ambassador Umar Farooq Zahoor. The notices direct the three men to appear before investigations in Lahore and record their statements. Inquiries began after Zahoor filed a complaint in a Lahore court accusing the suspects, reporters for a Norwegian tabloid, of spreading defamatory allegations against him in collaboration with Indian media outlets. The publication falsely stated that Zahoor was being wanted by the Norwegian authorities.
