Hussain Nawaz leaked photo was provided by PML-N social media team, claims the first tweeter
Shares
The person who first tweeted the Hussain Nawaz Leaked photo image has put a testimony on record – along with another shocking claim in an exclusive interview with the private Newspaper daily "Daily Pakistan" as reported on the Website.
“I didn’t know how true the phrase ‘a picture is worth a thousand words’ was until I tweeted the picture of Hussain Nawaz,” says the twitterati, who handles @takentweets on the social networking site.
The social media user (who preferred not be named) in his written testimony provided to Daily Pakistan added, “The firestorm that has been built around me since the 3rd of June, 2017 has been unfair & misguided. My intent was not to defend why or how a picture was sent to me but to release the picture into the public for an open discussion.
“Instead, this was turned into an ongoing accusation game to degrade and attack the honourable judiciary, which I will not allow myself to become a party to.”
Revealing the ‘real’ source of photo leak, the social media activist claimed “on 3rd June, 2017, the picture of Hussain Nawaz was posted on a Whatsapp group by a member of the PMLN’s social media team”.
While @takentweets (who insists on remaining anonymous) claims that he received the controversial photo from PMLN social media team member, his claims could not be independently verified.
“Not being a journalist, I didn’t find myself compelled to confirm the intent or the exact location of the said image, as the only thing on my mind was the interest it offered to the people of Pakistan. This image was very interesting to the people, in my opinion, so I tweeted the photo.
As “the so called leak of the said picture was then blamed on the opposition political parties and used to degrade and attack the honourable judiciary, calling their impartiality into question”, the social media user says “I am putting this statement forward for my own integrity and in the defense of the judiciary.”
