KARACHI: A private conversation between Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan and Dr Arif Alvi discussing the attack on PTV has been leaked on social media.

During the conversation Arif Alvi informs Imran Khan about the PTV attack and the shutting down of transmission. Imran Khan responds: “That is good, they deserve it.”

“It is all a question of forcing Nawaz to resign,” Imran tells Alvi, adding that there needs to be pressure on Nawaz to resign before the joint session.

Alvi in the conversation informs Imran Khan of trying to reach the MQM and waiting for their response. To this Imran Khan responded that Alvi should keep on trying. “You have to put maximum pressure today for a result tomorrow,” Khans said during the conversation.




Arif Alvi responded to the leaked conversation stating that the voices seemed genuine but the audio was tampered with.








Alvi also tweeted that there was nothing wrong with what was discussed about the MQM as the PTI had requested all parties to join the Dharna.













The office of PTV was attacked in September 2014 during the PTI and PAT sit-ins in Islamabad. In a press conference Information Minister Pervaiz Rashid had said that PTI was behind the attack.
