Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan’s Instagram account was hacked earlier today. However, the account has now been recovered.
After Imran Khan’s Instagram account was hacked, a new link was put in his Instagram bio. The link apparently led to a cryptocurrency website.
The Current reached out to Khan’s Focal Person on Digital Media Dr Arslan Khalid when the PTI chairman’s account was hacked. Dr Arslan Khan confirmed that it had indeed been hacked and was “being recovered”.
“Thanks to the Meta team, which gave a prompt response and helped us recover it in no time”, said Khalid.
Khan is not the only PTI member whose account was hacked this year.
