It further stated that in the event of non-compliance, legal proceedings would move forward in absentia. The NCCIA cautioned that failure to appear could result in action under Section 174 of the Pakistan Penal Code, which deals with non-attendance in response to an order from a public servant. In such a case, the agency said, arrest could be warranted. The federal government formally established the NCCIA last year, replacing the Federal Investigation Agency's cybercrime wing. The new body had been tasked with handling a growing number of online offences. At the time of the NCCIA's creation, Information Minister Attaullah Tarar had stated that the authority was set up to address issues such as online harassment, misinformation, and the spread of anti-state propaganda, while safeguarding the digital rights of citizens.
