Ex-Con Hacker Twins Fired – Proceed to Wipe Out 96 Government Databases in Minutes
13th May 2026
Note to employers: When you discover your twin brother employees are ex-cons who did time for hacking into the US State Department, and go to fire them, make sure you fully disable their access.
February 2025, twin brothers Muneeb and Sohaib Akhter turned a routine job termination into one of the most brazen insider sabotage incidents in recent U.S. government history. Just minutes after being fired from Opexus – a Washington, D.C.-area contractor that provides critical case-management software to more than 45 federal agencies – the brothers allegedly launched a rapid digital assault that deleted approximately 96 government databases containing sensitive FOIA records, investigative files, and taxpayer data.
I’m curious as to whom in the government it seemed like a good idea to put persons named Muneeb and Sohaib Akhter in charge of data for U.S. Federal agencies. That guy ought to have been fired as well.
