Your attention is directed to the below part of the Pakistan Penal code - violations of which have legal ramifications for all:
505. Statements conducing to public mischief:
(1) Whoever makes, publishes, or circulates any statement, rumour or report-
(a) with intent to cause or incite, or which is likely to cause or incite, any officer, soldier, sailor, or airman in the Army, Navy or Air Force of Pakistan to mutiny, offence or otherwise disregard or fail in his duty as such; or
(b) with intent to cause, or which is likely to cause, fear or alarm to the public or to any section of the public whereby any person may be induced to commit an offence against the State or against the public tranquillity; or
(c) with intent to incite, or which is likely to incite, any class or community of persons to commit any offence against any other class or community, shall be punished with imprisonment for a term which may extend to seven years and with fine.

Essentially any highly disparaging comments aimed to cause and incite mutiny/intimidation amongst ranks and file of Pakistan Armed Forces or also leads to ridicule and create hatred within Pakistan Army will have legal ramifications.
