An audio leak, purportedly featuring former Punjab chief minister and Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) leader Chaudhry Parvez Elahi, has come to the fore, wherein a voice – said to be his – could be heard telling his ‘lawyer’ to try and get a certain judge to hear a case of his close associate, Muhammad Khan Bhatti, a private TV channel reported. In the alleged audio, a voice said to be that of Parvez Elahi, is in conversation with a lawyer addressed as “Joja jee”. Elahi is said to be telling his lawyer to try and get a bench formed in the case of his close aide, Muhammad Khan Bhatti. In a second audio leaked on Thursday, Elahi asks his associate Abid Zuberi to follow up on the matter and they also discuss a case of former Lahore Capital City Police Officer (CCPO) Ghulam Muhammad Dogar that is affixed for hearing before Naqvi. In the third audio, Elahi is allegedly conversing with an unidentified individual as they discuss the former visiting the latter. The latter, however, tries to explain to Elahi, however, that the visit may not be appropriate.
