Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) dissident president Javed Hashmi and Federal Minister for Railways Khawaja Saad Rafique on Thursday denied rumours about establishing unwarranted contact to conspire against PTI and its chief Imran Khan prior to Hashmi’s outburst, Dunya News reported.
Talking exclusively on Dunya News’ special transmission hosted by Anchorperson Kahmran Shahid, both Hashmi and Rafique said that the contact between them was apolitical and neither leader contacted the other to influence political stances.
“No one can make Javed Hashmi say anything, he says what he believes in”, Saad Rafique said.
He said he has huge respect and devotion for the dissident PTI politician and that he often contacts Hashmi to inquire about his health.
Emphasizing his stance, Javed Hashmi said that he didn’t talk politics with Saad Rafique. He said he didn’t even tell Rafique about his resignation.
“Saad Rafique is [like] my kid, I didn’t tell him because I knew he would stop me.
It merits mentioning here that a phone contact list was leaked online detailing contacts between Javed Hashmi and Khawaja Saad Rafique prior to Javed Hashmi’s outburst on September 1. It was alleged that both leaders have been conspiring against PTI and its chief Imran Khan.
