Dawn Leaks: I was sacked before JIT’s report, says Pervaiz Rashid

Islamabad (Web Desk): Former Information Minister Pervaiz Rashid demanded that the Dawn Leaks inquiry report should be made public, local media reported.

The report should definitely be made public, former information minister said on Tuesday, adding, “I know those making the report must have worked hard in order to justify why the ministry was taken from me.”

“I don’t have anything to do with Dawn Leaks, my job was snatched from me before the report of the Joint Investigation Team probing the issue was released,” said Rashid.

Last year in October, former prime minister Nawaz Sharif had taken back the portfolio of Ministry of Information, Broadcasting and National Heritage from Pervaiz Rashid, weeks after the military’s top commanders said a ‘false and fabricated’ newspaper report breached national security.
