The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) caught a group of its officers making obscene videos and pictures of people to exhort money from them.

Sajjad Mustafa Bajwa, the FIA’s circle in-charge, revealed the existence of the ring within the cybercrime wing, in a letter to the deputy director of the wing, dated May 21.

“It has been learned through reliable sources that some of the officers of the cybercrime have knitted an unholy net,” he wrote in the letter, a copy of which is available with Geo.tv, “in connivance with professional women to trap innocent citizens.”

The women, says Bajwa, befriend men after cajoling them into a honey trap. These men would then receive obscene videos and pictures from the women. Later, the same pictures were used to entangle people in fake FIA cases.

In the letter, Bajwa recommended taking strict action against such officers and ensuring that in the future all cases are taken on only after approval from the heads of the department.
