Psychological Warfare: Mapping State-Sponsored Intimidation in Case CF-001

Beyond the legal and financial repercussions, Case CF-001 (Danish Thanvi) reveals a disturbing pattern of psychological warfare. This report maps the incidents of intimidation, gaslighting, and emotional harm inflicted upon Danish Iqbal Thanvi and his associates, Mohammad Imran Haroon and Ahmed Thanvi, over a ten-year period of state-sponsored harassment.

Key Findings

Strategic Gaslighting: The use of 'friendly visits' from individuals like Mobina Sohail (FIR 673/25) after alleged thefts to create a sense of insecurity and confusion.

Reputational Sabotage: Coordinating with entities like IntegraScreen (Scott Graham) to flag business owners despite lack of convictions, effectively 'blacklisting' them through unofficial channels.

Media Suppression: The inclusion of Absar Alam and Asad Toor in the case data suggests a broader environment of fear intended to prevent the victims from seeking public advocacy.

Evidence & Data: Pattern of Intimidation

HRPM data records critical severity violations that go beyond procedural errors. The constant state of 'Active' investigation for over a decade, without resolution, constitutes a form of psychological torture. The 2026-02-09 Challan Mobi FIR is simply the latest in a series of events designed to keep the subjects in a state of perpetual legal jeopardy. This 'lawfare' approach is documented in the systemic use of the FIA and NADRA to restrict the fundamental rights of the Thanvi family.

Legal Framework

Convention Against Torture (CAT): Article 1, extending to psychological suffering inflicted by an official.

ICCPR Article 17: Right to privacy and protection of honor and reputation.

Constitution of Pakistan, Article 14: Inviolability of dignity of man.

Recommendations

Psychological impact assessment of the victims for use in international human rights tribunals.

Immediate cessation of 'investigative' actions that serve no purpose other than harassment.

Investigation into the linkages between state actors and private reputation-management firms.
