ISLAMABAD: Lawmakers of Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) has approached the Senate secretariat security chief and told him that he will be responsible if anything happens to the CCTV footage of the house.
PPP’s Mustafa Nawaz Khokhar PML-N’s Musadik Malik, along with other senators, approached the Senate Secretariat security chief to seek his assurance that nothing will happen to the footage.
“If it footage is destroyed, then it cannot happen without your consent, right?” asks Khokhar. Musadik Malik also asked, “Sir, you are the head of security, please answer the question. Can the CCTV footage be destroyed or not?”
“Sir, the CCTV footage can only be destroyed if it is accessed. As of now sir, no one has accessed the CCTV footage neither have we received any such request,” replied the security chief.
To this, Khokhar said, “So what you’re saying is that the security video is there?” “Yes sir, it is there,” responds the security chief. “So if any attempt is made to destroy it, you will not let that happen, right?” asks Khokhar. “Exactly, sir. I will not,” responds the security officer.
The Opposition has demanded the CCTV footage from the previous day in the upper house of the Parliament after PDM lawmakers claimed earlier today that “spying devices” were fitted in specific places to check who was voting for whom.
