Reports about Zulfiqar Bukhari's alleged visit to Israel baseless: FO

ISLAMABAD (92 News) –  Responding to the reports regarding former PM's special assistant on overseas Pakistanis Zulfiqar Bukhari’s alleged visit to Israel, the Foreign Ministry (FO) spokesperson has on Monday termed them baseless and misleading.

FO spokesperson Zahid Hafeez Chaudhri said that these reports are baseless and misleading. "No such visit to Israel has been undertaken,” a press release by the foreign ministry said today," he added.

It added that a categorical rejection was also issued today on the same affair by Bukhari himself.

“Did not go to Israel,” the former SAPM himself tweeted earlier today fending off the alleging media reports.

He said referring to one such report, “Funny bit is Pakistani paper says I went to Israel based on ‘Israeli news source’ & Israeli paper says I went to Israel based on a ‘Pakistani source’-wonder who this imaginative Pakistani source is.”
