    Call between Absar Alam- General Faiz Hameed leaks online

    An aggressive conversation during a call allegedly between former Chairman of Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) Absar Alam and former Director General Inter Service Intelligence (ISI) Faiz Hameed has leaked online.
    ‘’I am complaining to you for not listening to us despite our best efforts, I don’t know what is the matter,’’ says Faiz Hameed to Absar Alam in the call.

    “I will send Brigadier Ghaffar to you. We sold out old channels whose licences are stuck. Do a special favour to resolve the issue,’’ he told Absar.
    ‘’You don’t listen to us, so I thought to request you on my own,’’ said the former spymaster in an aggressive tone.
    ‘’I don’t know channel names, although our brigadier will brief you,” Faiz concluded when Absar asked the channels names.
