ISLAMABAD: Director General Intelligence Bureau (IB) on Tuesday told a Senate committee that the agency was not tapping phone calls of politicians. He, however, said
Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) laws provide legal grounds for phone tapping.

The committee has summoned PTA officials in the next meeting for briefing on laws pertaining to phone tapping.
