A claim circulating on social media that Major General Atif Bin Akram is set to be promoted and appointed as the new Director General of Inter-Services Intelligence (DG ISI) is false.
The viral post claims that Atif Bin Akram is likely to receive a promotion in September and take over as the new DG ISI, citing his alleged “glorious services” as the reason for the expected appointment.
However, there is no credible official announcement or reliable news report confirming any change in the DG ISI position.
Lieutenant General Muhammad Asim Malik has been serving as DG ISI since September 2024, when he replaced Lieutenant General Nadeem Anjum.
Available information also lists Asim Malik as the incumbent DG ISI, while Major General Muhammad Atif Bin Akram is listed separately among serving army officers.
The viral claim appears to be based on speculation rather than any confirmed government or military notification.
