Case No. 9 has taken another incredible turn, focusing on the role of social media in a court case. Kamran (Faysal Qur shi) is trying to stage a fake public relations (PR) campaign to malign Sehar (Saba Qamar), and her response video goes viral. While she narrates her story, a huge number of activists, actors and journalists come to support Sehar.
Despite being advised against it, Kamran pays a heavy sum to run a troll campaign against Sehar online, which does not go in his favour. His trolls only give him limited trending, yet Sehar gains organic supporters who would eventually highlight the case, pushing for a swift decision from the court.
The social media campaign is Kamran’s second attempt to redeem his image and gain public support, but in his case, Sehar’s courageous and candid video gains far more attention than expected. Sehar only wishes to respond to the allegations against her, but ends up gaining public support and a demand for quick justice.
In her video, she talks about the crime committed against her, how she had been a target of accusations and how the fear of social judgment has pushed her to reach out for help later. She gets candid with the people, reflecting on how, being a rape survivor, she has been judged, accused and now a target of a fake PR campaign to malign her name and credibility.
Soon enough, posts by real-life activists, actors and journalists glow up the screen, giving the drama serial a realistic touch. It vividly depicts how social media comes together to support the victim, building pressure on law enforcement agencies to ensure justice in the case.
The episode has won acclaim for depicting how social media can be positively utilised by creating organic activism, a netizen posted on X:
What I loved about #caseno9‘s episode today is them showing the power of social media activism. Being an unbiased, apolitical activist & raising the voice for victims, can lead to organic movements to hold institutions accountable & shift outcomes that were previously bought.

I love how case no 9 showed how fake PR works, how neighbours and relatives act, how some genuinely good influencers raise their voices for the right and how most of us ignore it. #caseno9
