ISLAMABAD—With no love lost between them, former Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry and journalist Matiullah Jan exchanged barbs on Twitter, and both used unsavory language.
It all started with Matiullah terming the former minister a “tout” of former Army Chief Gen. Qamar Javed Bajwa and former ISI Chief Gen. Faiz Hameed. Matiullah called Fawad a tout while commenting on a tweet of the former minister in which he criticized lawyer Hamid Khan and supported former Chief Justice Syed Asif Khosa over the case of disqualification of former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif in the Panama case.
Fawad immediately hit back. He said it was understood that Matiullah had been given a job on the advice of current Information Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb, but he should have some limits in his flattery. Then Fawad called Mati a foolish person who barks like a dog.
