KARACHI: Sindh police’s Counter-Terrorism Department on Friday initiated action against social media accounts allegedly maintained by supporters and workers of the recently banned Tehreek-i-Labbaik Pakistan, according to CTD Sindh chief Omar Shahid Hamid.

“The CTD has initiated action against individuals who used social media to incite violence, spread hate and glorified the assaults on law enforcement personnel” said Mr Hamid.

He said that the list of TLP-related social media accounts has been identified and a complaint lodged with FIA’s cybercrime wing.
