Rift emerges within PTI’s accountability committee over code of conduct violation

Pakistan(National Times)- PESHAWAR: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) internal accountability committee has been subjected to differences over an inquiry into corruption allegations against Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly Speaker Babar Saleem Swati, The News reported. According to the sources, a disagreement emerged between committee members Brigadier (retd) Musaddiq Abbasi and senior lawyer Qazi Anwar regarding the findings of the probe.  The rift reportedly intensified after Anwar shared the investigation report of the committee with senior lawyer Salman Akram Raja. The other members considered this a violation of the committee’s code of conduct. “The report was meant to be submitted only to the PTI founder,” a committee member said, speaking on condition of anonymity. “Qazi Anwar sent the report to an outsider without consulting the other members.” The act has drawn displeasure from the remaining two members of the committee, who believed the move breached the standard operating procedures (SOPs) governing the committee’s work. Talking to Geo News, Anwar confirmed that he had sent the report to Raja. “He asked for the report, so I shared it with him,” Anwar said, while acknowledging that under the committee’s SOPs, the report should not have been shared with anyone other than the PTI founder. Commenting on the investigation itself, Anwar said he did not find Swati guilty of corruption, whereas, Abbasi disagreed with that assessment.  The third member of the committee, Shah Farman, along with Abbasi, declined to comment on the matter publicly. The internal rift has raised questions about the transparency and unity of the committee tasked with ensuring accountability within PTI ranks.
