LAHORE, Nov 28 (APP): A local court on Friday granted a four-day physical remand of journalist Sohrab Barkat, in a case regarding uploading / production of content against state functionaries on social media platform.
National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA) produced the accused before Judicial Magistrate Naeem Wattoo and sought 30-day physical remand for recovery and completion of investigation.
However, the defence counsel opposed the request.
The court noted that the case was registered in August, 2025 and apparently, the accused was involved in the matter.
The court approved the remand request and directed that Sohrab Barkat be produced again before the court upon the completion of the remand period.
