Federal Investigation Agency's (FIA) Cyber Crimes Unit has arrested a key suspect Ali Hassan Toor in connection with the controversial fake video targeting Provincial Information Minister Azma Bokhari.
Toor was apprehended while attempting to flee the country from Sialkot Airport.
Immigration authorities at the airport detained Toor and promptly alerted the Cyber Crimes Circle in Lahore. A team was dispatched to Sialkot to take him into custody.
Ali Hassan Toor is accused of being involved in the creation and distribution of the fake video, which allegedly aimed to defame the provincial minister. His name had already been placed on the Exit Control List (ECL), preventing him from leaving the country.
The arrest marks a significant development in the ongoing investigation into the case, which has attracted widespread attention due to its political implications.
