Asad, Taimur react to alleged leaked audio of Shuakat Tarin

 Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leaders Asad Umar and Taimur Khan Jaghra have reacted to the alleged leaked audio of PTI’s Shaukat Tarin.

While talking to media in Islamabad, Asad Umar said that this is not the first time that any kind of audio has been leaked as everyone’s phone has been tapped nowadays. He said, “cut pasting is their (PML-N’s) habit, no one is following the law in this country.”

Asad went on to say that anyone with sense cannot negate whatever Shaukat Tarin suggested in the audio.

On the other hand, Taimur Jhagra added that today they are questioning about our loyalty for speaking for the right of the people. “I accept that I wrote the letter, I own it as I have signed on it as well. ” he added.

While acknowledging the contents of the letter to Miftah Ismail, Jhagra said he only demanded due funds for erstwhile FATA areas. “We will not compromise on FATA areas as people are living there in miserable conditions,” he said.

Earlier, an audio of PTI leader Shaukat Tarin surfaced in which he allegedly asked Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Finance Ministers to backtrack from IMF commitments in order to pressurize federal government.

In the audio clip, former finance minister was allegedly giving directions to provincial finance minister to derail International Monetary Fund deal.
