💨 Abstract

Journalists in Peshawar, Pakistan, are protesting against amendments to the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act (PECA), saying the government is trying to suppress freedom of expression under the guise of combating 'fake news'. Leading journalistic bodies from around the world have also opposed the amendments, which they claim threaten press freedom, digital expression, and the public's right to information.
