🚨 Your Private Images Were Leaked — Here's What To Do

If your private photos or videos have been leaked or shared without consent in Pakistan, here is exactly how to get them removed and report the crime.

You Are Not Alone — And This Is a Crime

Sharing someone's private images without consent is a serious criminal offence under the PECA 2016 (Section 20). You have full legal rights. This page tells you exactly how to act fast.

Step 1 — Report to FIA Cybercrime Immediately

Call FIA Cybercrime Wing: 9911 (24/7 helpline)
Online complaint: complaints.fia.gov.pk
Visit your nearest FIA Cyber Crime Circle in Karachi, Lahore, or Islamabad
You can report anonymously — your identity is protected
FIA can compel platforms to remove content within hours in urgent cases

Step 2 — Get Content Removed from Platforms

Facebook/Instagram: Report > "Nudity" > "It's me in this photo" — or use facebook.com/help/contact/1815796865292769
WhatsApp: Report the contact, screenshot evidence, then report to FIA
Google Search: Remove results at removecontent.google.com (select "contains my personal information")
StopNCII.org — UK-based tool that creates a hash fingerprint to block images across platforms globally, without anyone seeing the image
Cyber Civil Rights Initiative (CCRI): cybercivilrights.org — international support for image removal

Step 3 — Preserve Evidence

Screenshot everything with timestamps before it's deleted
Save URLs of where content appears
Do NOT delete conversations — these are your evidence
Note the perpetrator's phone number, username, and any accounts they use

Your Legal Rights Under PECA 2016

Section 20: Sharing someone's intimate images without consent = up to 3 years prison + Rs 1 million fine
Section 21: Online harassment = up to 1 year prison
Courts in Pakistan regularly grant restraining orders and urgent injunctions
You can file a private complaint directly with a magistrate if FIA is slow
