ISLAMABAD – The Presidency has said that no proposal is under consideration to employ foreign guards for the security of the president.
Contradicting the report published in a section of media, stating that the government was considering hiring foreign guards for the president’s security, President’s Spokesman Farhatullah Babar said that the reports were completely devoid of truth.
He said that none of the personal staff for the president, from the military secretary (MS) to the deputy military secretary (DMS), was changed and, he added, the officers who were working in the Presidency before were still continuing in their positions.
He said baseless reports about hiring foreign security guards were only to promote sensationalism and did not serve the cause of fair and objective reporting.
