Imran Khan approaches Supreme Court (SC) for probe into prime minister (PM) House audio leaks
ISLAMABAD: PTI Chairman Imran Khan on Thursday filed a plea in the Supreme Court for the formation of a joint investigation team (JIT) or a judicial commission to probe the PM House audio leaks.
“Declare that the impugned actions, in particular, the illegal surveillance of the PMO and PMH and the release of the surveillance data, especially through the Audio Leaks, are unconstitutional and in violation of law,” the PTI chief prayed before the court.
The PTI chief has appealed to the apex court to supervise the investigations into the audio leaks so it “completes its task in a satisfactory manner” and the “illegal surveillance is put to a permanent end”. He also seeks that the probe identifies, retrieves, secures and then if necessary destroys the audio files.
The former prime minister has also urged the Supreme Court to hold the officials behind the audio leaks accountable.
“Direct the Government and all relevant agencies and authorities to take all necessary steps to prevent the release, publication, dissemination, sharing, broadcast and spread of any of the surveillance data, including the further use of the audio leaks,” said the PTI chief.
The ministries of Interior, Defense, IT, Information, PEMRA, Intelligence Bureau and FIA have been named as the respondents in the petition by the former premier.
