FIA arrests man for leaking government data in Islamabad

A man named Nawaz has been arrested in Islamabad for leaking sensitive government information on social media. He was taken into custody by the Cybercrime Circle of the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) during a targeted raid in Bani Gala. Authorities say Nawaz illegally accessed a passport and immigration database. He allegedly gathered personal details of citizens and high-ranking officials. He then shared this confidential information, including passport details and photos, on social media platforms. Officials are concerned about national security and data privacy due to Nawaz's actions. His intent seems to be to create panic among the public. A case has been filed against him, and he could face heavy penalties under the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act from 2016. The FIA has also seized his social media accounts and digital evidence. They are starting a forensic investigation to find any accomplices and understand the full scale of the data breach.
