ISLAMABAD: After Prime Minster Shehbaz Sharif alleged audio taps leaked on Saturday and Sunday, questions not only arose about the security of PM House but also about who is behind this criminal act. The leaked audio clip has rung alarm bells and raised serious questions about the security of PM House.
It is also being said that there are secret recording systems installed at PM House which even government representatives are unaware of.
What does government say?
So far government has no issued any official reaction or statement about the leaked audios, but ruling PML-N leader Talal Chaudhry, who holds no official position, said the government was taking the leaks “very seriously”.
Addressing a press conference in Faisalabad, he questioned the violation of the secrecy of official correspondences, saying it was shocking to note that “even the PM House is not safe”.
“Does it mean that details of all national security meetings will be leaked internationally?” he asked.
The PML-N leader also sought to expose the elements behind the leaks.
“Who is doing all this? Who is targeting the PM House? Are these same elements who had brought Imran into power?” he questioned.
He said the leaks was also a matter of shame for the PTI chief, pointing out that “even our private discussions are in fact transparent and merit is being discussed in it”.
The PML-N leader, however, did not question the authenticity of the audio at any point in his presser.
