ISLAMABAD: Federal Investigation Agency’s Cyber Crime Circle (FIA) on Wednesday issued another notice to former Finance Minister Shaukat Tarin for Thursday (today).
Earlier on Wednesday, Tarin did not appear before in the FIA despite notice. Shaukat Tarin, however, said that he did not receive any notice from the FIA, saying he cannot appear before FIA merely on news headlines.
According to details, Tarin has been issued a follow-up notice in reference to the leaked audio call case’s investigation. The agency would take action under section 174 in case of Tarin’s absence from the FIA, the notice read.
Tarin was ordered by the FIA to come to the agency for investigation of the leaked audio call between him and KP Finance Minister Taimoor Saleem Jhagra.
The FIA on Tuesday issued a notice to PTI leader Shaukat Tarin and summoned him for investigation of the leaked audio call.
Audio Clips Case
In one of the audio clips widely played on television channels and social media, Tarin can be heard asking Jhagra to write a letter to the federal government to let it know that KP would not be able to commit to a provincial surplus in light of the recent floods that have wreaked havoc in Pakistan.
The federal government had said that Tarin wanted to push the country toward a default.
