A Pakistani lawyer who set up a cyberharassment help line for women in the predominantly Muslim country says she continues to receive calls from women who face threats and abuse for going online, including from women who fear being killed by male relatives for using the Internet. Nighat Dad established the help line in 2016 with prize money from a Dutch human rights award.
