Authorities Warn Women Against Sharing Images to Prevent Blackmailing

October 23, 2026 • 1 hour ago •

LAHORE: In a recent statement, Punjab Chief Minister Mohsin Naqvi urged women to refrain from sharing their images with anyone, highlighting a growing trend of blackmailing through photos and videos. This warning comes amid rising incidents where victims are coerced into compliance by criminals using their private images as leverage.

Naqvi emphasized the importance of safeguarding personal information, stating, “Sharing images can lead to severe consequences, including blackmail and harassment.” His remarks were made during a press conference aimed at raising awareness about the dangers of digital privacy violations, particularly for women.

The implications of this warning are significant, as it underscores the urgent need for enhanced protective measures for women in Pakistan. With the increasing prevalence of social media, the risk of exploitation has escalated, prompting calls for stricter regulations and better support systems for victims of cybercrime.

In response to these concerns, the Punjab government plans to launch a public awareness campaign focused on digital safety and the legal repercussions of blackmailing. Authorities are also expected to collaborate with law enforcement agencies to strengthen the reporting mechanisms for victims.
