On September 30, an individual using a local train services from Kot Adu to Wah noticed that the train was offering adult services.
The furious passenger then proceeded to the booking office, protesting and informing the management of the situation that quickly went viral on social media.
Later, Thal Express representatives applied to DSP Railway Rawalpindi, claiming that their software had been hacked. Additionally, they requested action because the incident damaged the company’s reputation and encouraged officials to file a case against the unidentified hackers.
