ISLAMABAD – A new audio recording of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif surfaced on social media on Thursday, only days after the Pakistani government constituted a high-level probe into the alleged hacking and leaking of sensitive audio conversations.
In the latest leaked audio, the prime minister apparently talks about appointing Special Assistants to PM with an unknown person.
The second leaked audio of PM Shehbaz comes weeks after soundbites of PTI chairman Imran Khan and his party leaders among others were leaked online allegedly by a ‘hacker’.

The recent audio clip, much like previous leaks from unidentified sources, revealed a conversation between the premier and an unknown person about appointing special assistants from ruling coalition partners.
The unidentified man on the other side could be heard talking about Pakistan Peoples Party, a ruling alliance party, asking for posts of PM’s key aides.
The voice believed to be of PM Shehbaz can be heard saying, “No it is not like that, Bilawal Bhutto spoke to me in this regard.
Another voice then said, “We have to adjust Zafar Mahmood and Jahanzeb Sahib also…I will tell you a final number today”.
He further added that Muttahida Qaumi Movement member, Malik Ahmed, was reminded that he played a pivotal role in making deal with two parties…I am sending you his portfolio, he belongs to Karachi.
