Prime Minister Imran Khan Phone Got Hacked
The government on Saturday announced that PakistanWord and Emotions! Feelings we feel but cannot explain!! was facing India’s cyberwar and had decided to hold an investigation. It was related to the hacking of phones of Prime Minister Imran Khan and senior military officials by India with the help of Israeli espionage software. The government believes that the cyber attack was an attempt on the sovereignty of Pakistan. It would take legal action against Israeli surveillance company NSO in the International Court of Justice. International media reports said India was among a number of countries using the Israeli company’s spyware in attempted and successful hacks of smartphones belonging to journalists; government officials, and human rights activists around the world.
Moreover, “Before filing the investigation report; the Guardian contacted me and gave me three cell phone numbers of Prime Minister Khan so that I confirm that these were really his (PM’s) phone numbers;” the minister said; adding that the newspaper had information that these three cell numbers of the prime minister were hacked by India through Pegasus spyware. According to the Post; more than 1,000 phone numbers in India appeared on the surveillance list while hundreds were from Pakistan; including the one PM Khan once used. However, the Post did not specify whether the surveillance attempt on Mr Khan’s number was successful.

We Indians happily give away all our information to US govt’s snooping tools like Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc. But we scream only if our own government snoops on us. Crux: We trust Western Colonialists more than our own rulers. History of an inferiority complex-ridden people.
