ISLAMABAD: Federal Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry said on Friday that as many as 32 men associated with the outlawed Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) have been rounded up for their involvement in propaganda on social media.
“32 members of the banned outfit have been apprehended in an overnight operation. These people were peddling hatred-based propaganda through fake social media accounts,” he revealed in a Twitter post.
