He also said that the evidence emerging from Amir Tamba’s murder investigation was “clearly pointing” to India’s involvement.

He added that the campaign against overbilling will not stop despite pressure on the Federal Investigation Agency.

Naqvi said that FIA’s director general is under immense pressure over the campaign but it will not stop under any condition.

He added that 830 million units had been overbilled in Lahore alone and even poor people who consumed only 300 units were affected.
