Pakistan’s Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah indicated on Wednesday that the government will take legal action against former premier Imran Khan under the violation of the country’s laws of secrecy, amid resurfacing of the ‘cypher’ controversy.
The cypher issue is linked to the claim made by Khan last year after his ouster from power that he was shown the door under a US conspiracy and he cited a diplomatic cable to bash his opponents.
The controversy resurfaced after Khan’s principal secretary Azam Khan, who was missing since last month, suddenly appeared and recorded a statement before the magistrate stating that the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief had told him to use the secret communication for political purposes.
