TikToker Alina Amir has urged Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz to take action against a deepfake video of her circulating on social media.
In a video message shared on Instagram on Sunday, she said she had initially remained silent for a week but decided to respond after seeing posts falsely claiming her video had been leaked.
She criticised those attempting to defame others and urged social media users to verify the authenticity of content before sharing it.
“I sincerely request Punjab CM Maryam Nawaz sahiba to take action against all these culprits who create videos of women to malign them and ruin their lives,” she appealed.
Amir praised the Punjab Cyber Crime Department for its work and requested the authorities to take the matter seriously and ensure strict punishment for those creating AI-generated videos of women.
She said creating fake videos to defame someone amounted to harassment, and noted that perpetrators were not only targeting actors, TikTokers or influencers but also ordinary citizens, sending videos to their families and destroying their lives.
The social media influencer also announced a cash reward for anyone who provided information about the person behind the fake video, emphasising that women should speak up and raise their voices instead of staying silent.
