April 22, 2025Pakistan vows cooperation on emerging tech threats
April 23, 2025The Government of Pakistan has formally established the National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA) as an independent institution with full authority to investigate and act against all cyber-related offenses across the country.
In light of increasing incidents of harassment, blackmail, identity theft, and other social media crimes, the previous cybercrime wing under the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has been elevated to the status of an autonomous body specifically tasked with combating online crimes.
According to an official statement from the FIA spokesperson, all responsibilities related to cyber crime prevention, investigation and enforcement will now be handled exclusively by the newly-formed NCCIA.
