The Islamabad High Court has released the written order in contempt of court case over the social media campaign against Justice Babar and his family data leak.
The three-judge larger bench – consisting of Justice Mohsin Akhtar Kayani, Justice Tariq Mehmood Jahangiri, and Justice Sardar Ejaz Ishaq Khan – passed the order yesterday.
According to the FIA cybercrime wing report, it is clear that orchestrated campaigns were set in motion, the order stated, adding that information related to a few more accounts will be placed before the court at the next hearing.
The court expressed disappointment with the ISI report. The order read: “The ISI’s report was handed across the rostrum by the learned AAG, as it could not be filed earlier. We say, and not with a small degree of disappointment, that the report is rather scant. Its first two pages attempt in an apologetic tone to explain that no further progress could be made because the X accounts were closed.
“We posited a hypothetical scenario in the context of the 5th generation warfare, and asked if the enemy were to launch, say, a campaign levelling accusation of blasphemy against the President or the chief of the army staff, would ISI’s response will be a similar expression of helplessness, to which we received a rambling reply. We also asked if ISI was 5G warfare capable and were met with blankness at the bar in response.”
