ISLAMABAD: The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has initiated work on the complaint moved for a legal action against Ali Amin Gandapur, a leader of the opposition Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) party, over a tweet critical of former army chief Gen. Qamar Javed Bajwa.
A mysterious person in a complaint filed to the agency requested that action be taken against Gandapur over the “hateful and poisonous” tweet against the general.
The text of the complaint read that Gandapur attempted to incite public hatred against the army by tweeting against the military command which was a violation of the FIA Cyber Crime Act.
“Ali Amin Gandapur tweeted: ‘Who was he? He was Mir Jaffer Bajwa’. By posting such a hateful tweet, he not only dared question the loyalty of the army chief but also hatched a dangerous ploy to incite people against their defence institutions,” it declared, without explaining further.

“It will be a weakness [on the part of security institutions] to ignore it,” it stated. “Ali Amin Gandapur should be brought to justice for spreading incitement against the military command so that no one can do such a thing in the future.”
