As tensions remain high between India and Pakistan, social media platforms are once again being flooded with sensational content. The latest wave of viral images features Seema Haider, a Pakistani woman who fled to India and married an Indian man named Sachin. These photos, which portray her in military uniform, have triggered panic and conspiracy theories across Indian social media—many claiming she is an undercover Pakistani spy.
Indian media outlets have picked up on these AI-generated visuals, suggesting that Seema is a trained operative sent to India on a secret mission. The posts have gone viral rapidly, sparking fear and intense debate among users. Phrases like “Seema is part of a big game” and “Pakistan’s espionage strategy” are trending widely.
However, a closer fact-check reveals the truth behind these viral pictures.
The Reality Behind the Images
The photos making rounds online are not authentic. In reality, these are AI-edited or face-swapped images using advanced tools. The faces have been digitally altered to replace those of real Pakistani army officers.
The original image showing a female officer in camouflage with a nameplate that reads “Ayesha” actually belongs to Captain Ayesha, a respected officer in the Pakistan Army.
Another viral image with a UN beret and a nameplate that initially read “Komal” is actually of Major Komal, another professional serving officer.
The edited versions have Seema Haider’s face swapped onto these genuine photos, creating a misleading narrative.
The real image featuring Captain Ayesha, used without consent in AI edits.
Major Komal’s official photo, also used in the viral fake images.
Conclusion
The viral photos alleging Seema Haider’s connection to Pakistan’s military are fabricated and misleading. They are a product of AI-based image manipulation and do not prove any espionage activities. Fact-checking reveals that these pictures originally belonged to verified female officers of the Pakistan Army and have been wrongly used to create fear-driven content.
As always, we urge readers to verify content before sharing and avoid spreading misinformation that can escalate tensions further.
