“You are directed to appear in person before the inquiry team to record your statement at the FIA headquarters in Islamabad on November 1, 2022 at 12:00pm,” the FIA wrote to the ex-foreign minister.

On October 2, former federal minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi had said that the government should investigate the cipher as PTI was not afraid of the government’s decision.

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Vice Chairman Makhdoom Shah Mahmood Qureshi, while addressing a press conference at his residence Bab-Al-Quraish in Multan, had said that the federal cabinet had decided to take action against Imran Khan, Asad Umar, and him. While the FIA had also been instructed to conduct an inquiry in this regard.

He had said that the cipher was a reality that the government had accepted while the same people did not accept the reality of the cipher some time ago.

Shah Mahmood Qureshi had said, “I read the letter regarding Donald’s meeting with the former ambassador, I read the letter and explained that there is a risk for the country.”
