The Federal Investigation Agency’s (FIA) Cybercrime Wing has initiated an inquiry against Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan. The investigation stems from the alleged upload of a propaganda video attributed to Sheikh Mujibur Rahman from Khan’s official X (formerly Twitter) account.
A notification issued by the FIA Cybercrime Wing states that the inquiry was prompted by the posting of a propaganda video on May 26th, purportedly featuring Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, from Khan’s X account.
The notification highlights that Khan, currently incarcerated at Adiala Jail, had his official account used to upload the video.
Sources reveal that the FIA Cybercrime Wing will be interviewing four individuals associated with the PTI in connection with the incident.

The team is expected to question Imran Khan, Barrister Gohar, Omar Ayub, and Raoof Hasan. The FIA aims to determine whether the video was tweeted by Khan himself or with his authorization.
The notification further emphasizes that the investigation will examine the origins of the anti-Pakistan propaganda, identifying those responsible for its creation and dissemination.
If the account holder is found to have uploaded the video, legal action will be taken. However, if the account holder denies posting the video, they will be required to request the closure of their X account for its unauthorized use.
