💨 Abstract

On May 9, a Pakistani government officer, Hina Sheikh, was arrested for criticizing the Pakistan Army and the Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif-led government in a WhatsApp group during military tensions with India. The National Cyber Crime Agency charged her under the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act (PECA) for allegedly inciting public against the state and the Army. The Sharif government has previously arrested several individuals, including journalists and activists, for similar criticisms.
