*SLAMABAD: The United States is seeking assistance of the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) to trace a person sending threatening messages to US President Donald Trump from Pakistan, the National Assembly Standing Committee on Government Assurances was informed on Monday.*
A top FIA official informed the NA body about US’s request, as well as complaints about social media posts depicting Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan as Lord Shiva.
FIA Cyber Crimes director retired Capt Muhammad Shoaib said it was hard to track down people who posted blasphemous material on social media.
About the US request, he said the US authorities had last week contacted the FIA with a complaint that someone had threatened Mr Trump and sought help to identify the person who had sent the message. But the FIA couldn’t trace the person so far, he informed the lawmakers.
According to report, US authorities have been advised to contact the FIA through proper diplomatic channels that is Foreign Office. “We will start investigation after getting a request through diplomatic channels, and after identifying the person who threatened Mr Trump, we will provide information through the same channel,” he added
