Authorities alleged that digital media cell at PTI\u2019s office become hub for international disinformation
\nIslamabad
\nA day after the completion of a two-day physical remand, a Judicial Magistrate extended the physical remand of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Information Secretary, Raoof Hasan, and other accused by three days.
\nJudicial Magistrate Muhammad Shabbir Bhatti extended the physical remand of the accused by three days.
\nThis extension came following a request from the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), which had originally sought a 10-day remand.
\nRaoof was arrested on Monday during a raid on the PTI Secretariat, seizing a computer and other items. According to sources, authorities allege that the digital media cell at PTI\u2019s office had become a hub for international disinformation, where anti-Pakistan propaganda was being carried out in collaboration with enemy agencies.
\nToday, the FIA prosecutor requested an extension of eight more days of physical remand, arguing that the accused are active in 100 WhatsApp groups. He stated that Raoof heads both international and national media cells, and Jibran Ilyas has previously worked with a foreign president.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
