21 Aug: BBC: Pakistan arrests man over Southport attack disinformation
by Caroline Davies, BBC Pakistan Correspondent
Authorities in Pakistan have arrested a man on suspicion of cyber terrorism, in relation to disinformation thought to have fuelled UK unrest.
Police told the BBC that Farhan Asif was linked to a website which gave a false name for the suspected Southport attacker and suggested incorrectly that he was an asylum seeker who arrived in the UK on a small boat...
According to the latest Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) figure on Tuesday, 494 people have been charged in relation to the recent rioting and unrest.
More than 130 people have already been sentenced with most sent to jail.
Update: This article originally reported that police in Pakistan had told the BBC that Farhan Asif had been charged with cyber terrorism. The police have since confirmed that he is under arrest but has not been charged and we have updated our article to make that clear.
