A court in Lahore, Pakistan has granted investigators permission to continue questioning a man in custody regarding his involvement in spreading false information that incited riots in the U.K. The suspect, a 32-year-old freelance web developer, was charged with cyber terrorism after his arrest in Lahore, Punjab province.
Authorities sought a two-week custody extension for the suspect, but the court only approved an additional four days for questioning. The suspect allegedly disseminated fake news through social media platforms, leading to violent incidents in England.
