According to sources, FIA started an investigation after the interior minister gave them the go-ahead. Then, they said: FIA is inspecting social media campaigns against the military and judiciary. Pages active in a social media campaign against Pakistan’s courts and military are part of the bigger mess, and anyone found guilty will face harsh punishments.
