Senior Civil Judge Mohammad Qaddafi bin Zair sentenced a man to four-year rigorous imprisonment and imposed a fine of Rs50,000 on him under the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act (Peca 2016).

According to the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), the conviction was announced by the judge while hearing a criminal case filed under Section 21 of Peca 2016.

In case the convict, Kaleem Abbas, a resident of Toba Tek Singh, defaults on fine payment, he would serve another one month imprisonment. The convict was shifted to Adiala jail on Wednesday.
