According to the case details, the accused lured a 16-year-old matriculation student into a drawing room and confined him. He then threatened and harassed the minor at gunpoint before recording an objectionable video without his consent. The court acquitted co-accused Shahzaib Miraj, granting him the benefit of the doubt, as the prosecution failed to establish his involvement in aiding or abetting the crime. In a similar case, an Islamabad court on October 22 sentenced two men to 10 years in prison each for blackmailing a 12-year-old girl and sharing her objectionable pictures. Judge Majoka awarded each convict seven years' imprisonment and a fine of Rs1 million under Section 22 of PECA. Under Section 24 (cyber stalking) of the same act, both convicts were sentenced to an additional three years in prison each and fined Rs1 million each, bringing their total prison term to 10 years each and the fine to Rs2 million each. The case was registered by the National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency on the complaint of the minor girl's father, according to The Express Tribune.
