Pakistan’s National Security Committee has approved the formation of a body to investigate the recently emerged audio leaks from the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) in which the conversations of central leaders in the coalition government can be heard. Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah will head the panel. A number of tapes doing the rounds on social media and television networks are of PM Shehbaz Sharif in conversation with his aides and cabinet colleagues. PML-N Vice President Maryam Nawaz has also featured in some of the tapes wherein she is heard mulling and manoeuvring senior officials for some import provisions from India, according to The Express Tribune. This comes at a time the coalition government, led by the PML-N, is in a tight corner and the opposition is out to name and shame it.
