Creators, admins of WhatsApp groups not criminally liable for posts made by members: LHC

The Lahore High Court ruled that creators or administrators of WhatsApp groups are not automatically criminally liable for members' posts, denying bail to a man accused of sharing blasphemous content. The court emphasized that liability arises only if an individual personally uploads or shares objectionable material, referencing Pakistan Penal Code and Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act sections.
