Chattha said that the PTI leader told him that the entire planning had been formulated after consultation and approval of the senior leadership of the party.
This proposal was made by the said individual in consideration of the fact that I was about to retire from service.
He was also aware of the fact that I was under pressure due to this forthcoming retirement.
“After having remained a part of the services for 32 years, it is naturally hard for any civil servant to let go of all perks, privileges, and authorities,” he said in a statement available to the media.
“Initially, it was proposed by me that I would write the entire narrative and submit the same as part of my resignation.
However, this proposal was dropped by the said prominent PTI leader as such written resignation would not create any sensations for their narrative building,” he said.
After detailed discussions, he said, it was agreed that a press conference would be conducted by him at a time and date to be conveyed after consultation and approval of the senior PTI leadership.
The primary aim of this proposed press conference, Chattha said, was to create sensations and drama augmenting false narratives being built by the PTI.
He said that the name of Isa, the Chief Justice of Pakistan, was taken to create mistrust in the general public against him.
The chief justice did not have any role in the entire election process.
“However, I was specifically asked by said prominent leader of PTI to name the CJP. He told me that he had been specifically asked by his top leadership to do so. The aims behind naming the CJP were manifold.”
