00:00 I have been in touch with him since a day or two after the visit. When he comes to my office, I express my concern and I tell the Prime Minister that this is a matter worth considering and I am concerned about it.
00:24 I also inform the various stakeholders of the matter to the Foreign Office.
00:34 Shah Ahmad Qureshi gave another statement in June.
00:40 Let's listen to it from Saifur.
00:42 When I got the idea that such a meeting has come to the Foreign Office, I requested the Foreign Secretary to show me 7-8 filfs and he presented them to me.
01:01 I informed the Prime Minister about this meeting.
01:06 He was not aware of it before?
01:08 I think so. When he saw the importance of this meeting, he held a meeting.
01:17 This decision was made in that meeting?
01:20 Yes, in the National Security Committee meeting.
01:26 We also asked him about the event in Cameroon. He said that he had informed the Chairman of the PTI in Cameroon.
01:38 What did Mr. Qureshi say about this?
01:42 I think that the inquiry committee has been formed and it is not appropriate to talk before that. But, as per Mr. Khan's knowledge, we talked in Cameroon and there was also a mention of Dimash.
02:02 So, you still have the same knowledge?
02:12 What is Mr. Qureshi's role in all this?
02:16 Mr. Amin, you can disagree with Mr. Shah, but I think that he has always adopted the same position on the issue of Pakistan's national interest.
02:39 You must remember that some of the leaders of Tehreek-e-Insaf, especially those who were around Imran Khan, claimed that they had been hidden from us.
02:53 We had put our finger in our throat and got it out.
02:56 You have mentioned a few times that the military leadership had told Imran Khan in Cameroon. I have heard this from General Qamar Javed Bajwa.
03:12 He said that he had told Imran Khan about the cipher in the presence of Asad Umar.
03:19 I think that Mr. Shah told Foreign Secretary Azam Khan about this a day before he spoke to him.
03:38 So, I don't see a big difference between the statement Azam Khan made yesterday and the statement of Mr. Shah last year.
03:52 I think that Mr. Shah was not a yes-man. He spoke to Imran Khan on many issues, which he knew would not be liked by Imran Khan.
04:06 He spoke in a two-way manner.
04:09 But this is my personal opinion about him.
04:12 As a foreign minister, he tried to watch Pakistan's national interest very well.
04:18 But my information is that after recording the statement of Azam Khan and after discussing with other FIA officials,
04:34 my information is that Shah Umar Qureshi will not only be investigated, but he may also be taken into custody.
04:43 Dr. Shireen Mazari is also under investigation.
04:50 But she is only accused of taking a hard line against the US in the Cabinet meeting where the cipher was discussed.
05:01 But this is her personal opinion.
05:03 But because Shah Umar Qureshi was a foreign minister and now the allegation is being made that the cipher was a fact,
05:11 but because as a minister of nuclear power, the cipher was misplaced, and this cipher was also sent by the Secretary of State.
05:22 So, in the case of misplacing it and using it for political purposes, Shah Umar Qureshi is equally responsible as the then Prime Minister.
05:34 So, my information is that he will be investigated and he may also be taken into custody.
