Anwaarul Haq Kakar says some elements with a proven track record of violent behavior and vigilantism are now using different tricks, including the weaponization of social media, to blackmail and pressure civil servants to switch their loyalties from the State of Pakistan to the violent gang.


Islamabad: Caretaker Prime Minister Anwaar-ul-Haq Kakar on Monday said that the State of Pakistan would defend civil servants in discharging their constitutional duties and act against violent trolls in the media involved in running a slanderous campaign on social media.
He said this in a statement in the backdrop of the ongoing campaign on social media by some elements.
The Prime Minister said the people of Pakistan have spoken with a clear voice on February 8 and have given a split mandate.
However, some elements with a proven track record of violent behavior and vigilantism are now using different tricks, including the weaponization of social media, to blackmail and pressure civil servants to switch their loyalties from the State of Pakistan to the violent gang.
Anwaar-ul-Haq Kakar said this action is a clear violation of Article 5 and other articles of the Constitution and the laws of the land.
He said the State of Pakistan shall ensure exemplary punishment for the elements involved in this malicious campaign. He said there should be no doubt about our commitment to these noble civil servants serving the State and the people of Pakistan.
