ISPR warns Shaheen Sehbai of legal action over tweet

ISLAMABAD—The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) has warned that peddling malicious allegations and blatant lies against the military institution and its leadership to promote vested interests is condemnable. The institution reserves the right to take legal action against those involved.

Senior journalist Shaheen Sehbai had tweeted: "NEUTRAL EXPOSED: I am going to write soon about WHY the Chief Neutral, proved by Shaukat Tarin as Non-Neutral as he asked Tarin to betray Imran Khan and help Shehbaz, is so sensitive and DEAD SCARED about his remaining four months in office. Something fishy, intriguing, alarming, unpatriotic."

In a statement, the ISPR said that the insinuations by journalists and others on social media quoting the former finance minister are baseless propaganda. The same has also been duly rebutted by Shaukat Tarin himself.
