Daily Sun files General Diary against circulation of fake news cards

The Daily Sun authorities have filed a General Diary (GD) with Vatara Police Station, alleging that unidentified individuals or groups have been creating and circulating fake news cards using the newspaper's name, logo and design, misleading readers and damaging the publication's reputation.

The application was submitted by Daily Sun's Manager (Human Resources and Administration) on Tuesday.

According to the complaint, the fake news cards have been widely shared on social media and other online platforms, falsely giving the impression that they were published by Daily Sun.

The newspaper said it has no connection with the fabricated content and warned that the misuse of its brand identity is misleading the public while harming the newspaper's long-established credibility, reputation and goodwill.

The complaint further said that the circulation of the fake graphics is creating public confusion and appears to be a deliberate attempt to tarnish the image of the media outlet.

Daily Sun requested that the matter be officially recorded through a General Diary to facilitate legal action against those responsible and help prevent further dissemination of fraudulent content bearing the newspaper's identity.

The newspaper urged readers to verify the authenticity of news cards through its official platforms and avoid sharing unverified content circulating on social media.
