A lawyer on Saturday moved the Peshawar High Court against restrictions on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) in the country by the federal government and the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority.
In the petition, Nouman Muhib Kakakhel said the court should declare the “systematic disruptions and blocking” of X unconstitutional and a violation of the fundamental and legal rights of the people at large, including him.
He requested the court to order the complete restoration of X service in the country.
