For this reason, it is mandatory to establish a directorate for Cybercrimes. Moreover, we established a channel with the Parliament and international organizations to legislate an act on defamation."

"In cooperation with the relevant ministries and institutions in the Kurdistan Regional Government, we formed a joint committee to help Kurdistan's women and girls having these cases," the Secretary-General of the Supreme Council for Women in the Kurdistan Region, Khanzad Ahmed, said, "some people hack the social media accounts of girls and women, then threaten and blackmail them. These cases must be confronted with the law."
