Pakistan's National Cybercrime Investigation Agency (NCCIA) has summoned three Norwegian nationals, including a VG reporter and a prosecutor, to Lahore for a defamation inquiry. The summons, issued under inquiry number ENQ-CCRC-Lahore-1878/26, requires them to appear on May 13, 2026, to provide their statements regarding a complaint filed by businessman Umar Farooq Zahoor. Zahoor alleges that VG published defamatory content linking him to Indian media after a diplomatic meeting with US Vice President JD Vance. The inquiry follows claims that VG falsely described Zahoor as wanted by Norwegian police. The NCCIA has warned that failure to appear will be interpreted as a lack of defense. This case highlights the intersection of media reporting and international diplomatic relations.
