PESHAWAR: Pashto singer and dancer Muneeba Shah on Thursday was arrested in Peshawar for being allegedly involved in posting private pictures of a girl via a fake social media account.
The victim, who has been identified as Sana, claimed that the singer was uploading her photos on a fake Facebook account in her name.
Sana had lodged a complaint with the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) Cybercrime Wing, which conducted a probe into the matter.
The FIA also carried out a raid on Muneeba’s residence in which she was also taken into custody by the authorities.
According to authorities, the Facebook account was created on a mobile SIM card and was being used via a wireless internet connection.
The FIA has now registered a case against the accused singer.
Moreover, Zubair, another accused, had confessed to posting the images at the behest of the singer.
On Wednesday, a passenger was offloaded from a Denmark-bound flight and taken into custody by FIA at the Islamabad airport.
When airport authorities verified the identification of Nigel Brian Rabellow, a Pakistani citizen, it was found that he was implicated in a cybercrime case.
