PTI MNA Booked Under Cybercrime Laws for comments regarding PM Shahbaz’s Egypt Trip

An FIR has been lodged at the NCCIA Cyber Crime Reporting Center against PTI MNA Shandana Gulzar for her alleged inflammatory and hateful posts regarding Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif’s trip to Egypt during the “Gaza Peace Summit”.  She is currently under investigation under  multiple sections of the PECA Act due to her allegations that PM Shahbaz was cordial with the Israeli premier during the Gaza Summit, despite Netanyahu not being present in Egypt for the Peace Agreement.

Over the last week, Shandana- along with other PTI affiliated accounts on X- posted low-quality images of what appeared to be a friendly meeting between Shahbaz Sharif and Israeli PM Netenyahu. Labelled as treasonous due to Pakistan’s position of non-recognition towards the Israeli state, these posts fuelled anxieties regarding Pakistan’s potential accession to the Abraham Accords- implying normalization with Israel. However, these rumors were quickly dispelled once it became clear that these pictures showed Shahbaz Sharif not with Netanyahu but rather the Armenian Prime Minister. PM Netanyahu, as was official news, was not present at the Gaza Summit.
