  "account": "Lahore High Court Chief Justice Aalia Neelum voiced her discontent on Thursday regarding police officers creating TikTok videos about missing girls and sharing them on social media. Querying how these officers could find the missing girls through such activities, the chief justice heard a petition from Salma Bibi, seeking the return of her presumed missing daughter. The chief justice also voiced dissatisfaction with the committee established to recover the missing girls and directly summoned Inspector General of Police (IGP) Abdul Karim on November 11. Prior to this, police officials including Punjab DIG (Crimes) Ali Janbaz and DIG (Legal) Awais Malik faced the court.\n\nThe police reportedly recovered 2,810 girls, with 452 still missing, while four of the outstanding cases dated back to 2021. Chief Justice Neelum questioned how police could investigate cases from 2021 when they were already in 2026, stating they could not wait until 2032 to review cases filed in 2024. The police informed the court that a social media platform had aided in locating several missing girls. According to an investigation officer, most of the pending cases originated from Rawalpindi, Sialkot, and Nankana Sahib. Chief Justice Neelum was informed that disciplinary action would be taken against the police officials involved in creating and posting TikTok videos. She adjourned further proceedings until November 11.",
