LHC’s hacked website restored

LAHORE: The Lahore High Court’s information technology department took an hour on Tuesday to restore its website which had been hacked by an Indian hacker.

The hacker named “Sahoo” left a warning on the website for Pakistan People’s Party Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, asking him to stop issuing statements about Kashmir because it belonged to India, according to an official of the LHC.

The hacker also pasted on the website some tweets of Mr Bilawal and termed his recent statement on Kashmir a joke.

A handout issued by the LHC said the data on the website remained safe.

Justice Syed Mansoor Ali Shah took notice of the hacking incident and activated the staff of the IT department.

He ordered an inquiry into the matter and summoned officials of Punjab Board of Information Technology and other IT experts on Wednesday (today).
