Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leader and Senator Sherry Rehman on Friday said that Pakistan Te-hreek-e-Insaf (PTI) is taking revenge on critics in the name of fake news that is the reason PPP has demanded the Government to withdraw the Preven-tion of Electronic Crimes (PECA) law.
Sherry Rehman, who is also the Vice President of PPP, while taking over her twitter handle said that PECA law is a weapon to be used against critics in the name of fake news on which all the opposition parties have raised their concerns.
The PPP leader further said that if this law was made to handle the fake news issue, it would have also been presented in the Parliament. We cannot allow the government to take away the right of free-dom of speech from the masses. The government must withdraw the PECA ordinance, she added.—INP
