The party that imposed FIA on citizens is telling us the FIA has failed & someone else has to do its job. Yes, it has. But failed to achieve the maximalist repressive aims of the state or investigate and prosecute genuine grievances of citizens, that is the discintion to be made.
Re National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency, while the govt can establish or designate an existing agency under S.29 of PECA, the manner in which this has been done and the reasons being given for it, coupled with little to no information about its operations is problematic
Why a new cybercrime agency? What happens to the ongoing cases? What stakeholders were consulted? Can a law related to the media be made w/out consulting media/rights orgs? With feedback from: @AzharAbbas3 @nighatdad @UsamaKhilji @nuqsh @miansamiuddin thenews.com.pk/print/1185210-…
More Curbs on Social Media: Pakistan establishes National Cyber & Investigation Agency to deal with alarmingly rising crimes on cyber/internet space, social media in particular. All cases of cyber crime would be transferred from FIA to new National Crime Agency. Ordinance issued.

A little overwhelmed, but deeply grateful upon finding out that @AliaChughtai and I have won the Human Rights Press Awards 2024 for our story we did for @AJEnglish about the Pakistanis who died when their boat sank off the Greece coast in June 2023. hrw.org/news/2024/05/0…
Just finished reading chapter II of Prof. @ZohaWaseem stellar examination of the authoritarian foundations of policing institution in 🇵🇰. A🧵. 1/ @HurstPublishers @SocioWarwick @Urban_Violence
BREAKING: UCL and King's College London @KingsCollegeLon students have set up their encampment calling for the end of Israel's #genocide in #Gaza and demanding our universities to divest from Israeli institutions and war machine. #CeasefireNOW
I've written on political dissent & violent policing for 15 years, particularly in NYC. Compared to Tuesday night, I have never witnessed, at the scene of a protest, the use of police power so disproportionate to the type of demonstration taking place. theintercept.com/2024/05/01/nyc…
In Rafah I saw new graveyards fill with children. It is unimaginable that worse could be yet to come | James Elder (UNICEF) theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
A while ago we asked @j_e_s_s_whyte @goldosuri & @MashaVelickovic if they would collect a reading list on #GazaGenocide We really hope this collection of critical (legal) thought will be helpful as people try to understand events & prepare to teach them! criticallegalthinking.com/2024/05/01/gaz…
biggest thanks @wwkstandspal for agreeing to host our talk with the brilliant @mayaywind today and to the amazing student occupier who joined us in conversation and helped us connect Maya’s work with the organising the students are doing around divestment.
the NYPD just posted a highly edited propaganda video, complete with an over-the-top dramatic cinematic score, about their raid on Columbia last night it has to be seen to be believed
I am horrified by the violent actions of police at US universities smashing protests against an ongoing #genocide perpetrated by a foreign country. Such a dystopian reality. May students and faculty members be safe. May the genocide end. May justice and reason prevail.…

I am watching a toddler die on a table in a field hospital in Rafah with half her face blown apart while listening to college students fight tears reporting on a police assault on their campus for protesting that, and I feel like I am losing my fucking mind.
“Open up the prison gate…” Outside 1 Police Plaza, #NYC Hundreds have gathered to protest the arrests made tonight. #FreePalenstine #StudentsForGaza #studentsolidarity
This is nerve-wracking, anticipating the imminent police attack on Columbia University students any minute now. Shame on you @Columbia administration for creating this situation—you are fully responsible for the police violence likely to unfold now.
How dare he tells protesters to 'Get out'. This is not Germany, Excellency @GermanyinPAK . We will protest against your unconditional support to the Gaza genocid3.

I spoke to @ammaralijan on the historic #StudentProtests in USA and will these mobilizations change the course of American policy in the Middle-East? Ammar himself mobilized students in Pakistan and faced repression, police cases for sedition. #Urdu youtube.com/live/KAKfhmbwp…

Again we are being told, this is for the good of citizens. How? A new agency has been notified & FIA has been removed as the investigation agency. How do you think uncertainty within the FIA will affect existing and new cases? Will CCW officials keep jobs by going over to NCCIA?
What we were told in 2015 we are being told again: women and children are targeted, there are harms online. Yes, all that happens and many are left without a remedy, even after PECA. In fact they face secondary harassment when they try to seek remedy under the law and with FIA.
Yet paucity of resources never pose a problem when FIA goes after journalists & dissidents. Or lose files by women who are victims of harassment & sabotage evidence. Or when there are attempts to "settle" the case & intimidate complainants so there is less to do & more to benefit
What is the new agency going to do differently? In the eight years PECA has been existence, there have been constant sob stories about "capacity" & lack of "resources" for the FIA, which rendered them unable to deliver and address citizen grievances in an effective manner.
When PECA was being debated in 2015, FIA was presented as the obvious choice for the agency to investigate cybercrimes under the law. We were told FIA is more professional than police, has experience & technical expertise to deal with such cases (which we contested of course).
Re National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency, while the govt can establish or designate an existing agency under S.29 of PECA, the manner in which this has been done and the reasons being given for it, coupled with little to no information about its operations is problematic
Why a new cybercrime agency? What happens to the ongoing cases? What stakeholders were consulted? Can a law related to the media be made w/out consulting media/rights orgs? With feedback from: @AzharAbbas3 @nighatdad @UsamaKhilji @nuqsh @miansamiuddin thenews.com.pk/print/1185210-…

Absolutely amazing wins at Goldsmiths. 🍉❤️🔥🇵🇸 Just shows it is possible for universities to work towards ending their complicity. @ucl are next!
Victory to every student encampment around the world. We will not stop fighting until Palestine is free, from the river to the sea 🇵🇸❤️
Hopefully this will satisfy everyone who has been so worried about fake news and the noise on social media…
I was there today at @UChicago. I’m here in this video. Here’s what went down. 1/7
After some brief scuffles, activists were able to successfully defend their space with plywood shields as well as faculty linking arms. The Israeli nationalists were outnumbered by community support on the Palestinian liberation side by this point.
Another @KingsCollegeLon alum killed by Israel. Adnan Al Bursh abducted, tortured. Maisara Alrayes killed in an airstrike, trapped under rubble for 30 hours. Yet, @KingsCollegeLon still silent, not even simple ceasefire call. This isn't neutrality, this silence is complicity.
Renowned surgeon Dr Adnan Al Bursh was abducted from a Gaza hospital in Dec 23. A former student of @KingsCollegeLon, he was imprisoned in Israel for 4 months. A fellow detainee testified to @HCWWatch that he was being tortured. Today 2 prisoner orgs announced he has been killed.
