ISLAMABAD:

A consultative meeting held under the auspices of the Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) on Monday demanded annulment of the recent amendments made to the country’s cybercrime law—the Prevention of Electronic Crime Act (PECA), 2016.

The meeting titled “Media Under Threat: Challenges Faced by Media Personnel Post-PECA (Amendment) Act, 2025” was organized at the SCBA head office.

Chaired by the SCBA President Rauf Atta, the session was attended by members of the bar as well as senior journalists and media personnel. The meeting later passed unanimous resolutions emphasising freedom of expression and denouncing the recent amendments to PECA.

“This consultative meeting condemns and disapproves the PECA (Amendment) Act, 2025, being defective legislation, considering it a violation of Article 19 of the Constitution, which guarantees the right to freedom of speech and expression.

“This consultative meeting holds that the PECA (Amendment) Act, 2025, infringes upon the rights of media personnel as protected under Article 19 of the ICCPR, adopted by the United Nations and to which Pakistan is signatory,” said a statement issued after the meeting.
