Balochistan Assembly Takes Strict Stance Against ‘Balochistan Leaks’, Summons Cyber Crime Authorities

**Quetta (Qudrat Daily):**
The Balochistan Assembly has taken a firm stand against the social media page “Balochistan Leaks” for spreading negative propaganda and defaming assembly members. Under the clear ruling of Speaker Abdul Khaliq Achakzai, the National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA) has been summoned to initiate legal action. The Assembly emphasized that it will not bow to blackmail or baseless allegations, and responsible parties will be brought to justice.

The issue was raised by Leader of the Opposition, Yunus Aziz Zehri, who criticized the social media page for systematically running a defamatory campaign against elected representatives, undermining the credibility of democratic institutions. Other members, including Asghar Ali Rand, Rehmat Saleh Baloch, Farah Azim Shah, Maulana Hidayat-ur-Rehman Baloch, Noor Muhammad Damr, and Ali Madad Jat, supported the call for immediate and transparent investigation of the fake accounts spreading misinformation.

Speaker Achakzai stated that corruption is a serious issue, but accusations without evidence are unacceptable. He reiterated that if the purpose of “Balochistan Leaks” is blackmail, the Assembly will not yield. The cyber crime team confirmed that preliminary proceedings under Sections 20 and 26-A have begun, and collective complaints will be filed.

The Assembly unanimously condemned the negative propaganda and character assassination, directing all legal and administrative resources to identify the page operators and ensure they face legal consequences. The Speaker emphasized that no leniency would be shown, and the cyber crime department is expected to report progress soon.
