PESHAWAR:

The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has arrested a suspect in the Abbottabad district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa for sexually assaulting children, recording the acts, and subsequently blackmailing them.

According to the FIA spokesperson, the Abbottabad Cyber Crime Circle conducted the operation, resulting in the arrest of the suspect involved in creating indecent videos of minors. A crackdown against those involved in cybercrimes was initiated on the directives of Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Raza Naqvi.
