RAWALPINDI: The National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA) carried out two major operations in the twin cities, arresting a suspect accused of exploiting children and dismantling a gang behind Rs20 million in online fraud, officials said on Sunday.

In the first case, the NCCIA conducted a raid at a residence in Islamabad’s PWD area and arrested a suspect identified as Shoaib for allegedly circulating obscene videos of a minor.

Two mobile phones were recovered from his possession, which, according to authorities, contained additional videos involving children.

A case has been registered against the suspect under the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act (Peca), while further investigations are under way.

Officials said the seized mobile phones have been sent to a forensic laboratory for detailed examination, adding that more information is expected to emerge from the analysis.
