KARACHI: The inquiry committee formed to probe Dawn leaks has recommended in its report to removal of Prime Minister’s aide on Foreign Affairs Tariq Fatemi, reported a private TV channel on Tuesday.

The committee, headed by Justice (r) Aamer Raza Khan, has also recommended removal of Rao Tehseen.

The inquiry committee comprised one member each from the ISI, MI and IB, Secretary Establishment Tahir Shahbaz, Ombudsman Punjab Najam Saeed and an FIA director.

The inquiry report is likely to be presented in next 24 to 48 hours.

On October 29, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif took back the Ministry of Information, Broadcasting and National Heritage from Pervaiz Rashid, weeks after the military’s top commanders said a ‘false and fabricated’ newspaper report breached national security.

Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has approved recommendations by the inquiry committee, according to reports.
