“We have to reach GHQ, I’m on my way, Ma’m Kanwal is also reaching,” MPA Farah can be heard in the alleged audio leak.

Speaking to Farrukhanda, another PTI leader, Farah said that there was fierce shelling on the Liaquat Bagh and clashes are taking place with the police. “All routes including Expressway are closed, now tell me what to do۔”

The PTI female member said that Rashid Hafeez, Shafiq and Samavia are in Faizabad, and Samavia is being pushed during the clashes.

It may be noted that Rawalpindi police, last week, constituted a special investigation team to probe the attack on the main gate of the military’s General Headquarters (GHQ) by ‘violent protesters’.
