Who is Maqsood Arif, the man behind social media campaign against army?

Islamabad: The Federal Investigation Agency on Tuesday arrested the man behind smear campaign against the Pakistan army and its leaders.

The man identified as Maqsood Arif was taken into custody from Sabzazar Lahore.

According to the agency, Arif is accused of running 2100 social media accounts.
