CJP Justice Asif Saeed Khosa social media accounts: SC clarifies media reports

*LAHORE: The Supreme Court spokesperson on Saturday has clarified the media report over social media accounts of Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Asif Saeed Khaosa.*

*SC clarified that the incumbent Chief Justice of Pakistan Asif Saeed Khosa does not have any presence on social media.*

“It is clarified that his lordship [CJP] is neither using any Twitter or Facebook account, nor page, nor any other ID or any other social networking websites,” said the public relation officer of the top court.

The clarification came after a fake social media account being operated in the name of the new chief justice came to light.

The court directed the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) and Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) to block the accounts, IDs and pages in the name of Justice Khosa and pursue legal actions against those responsible.[image: Chief Justice Asif Saeed Khosa]
