Former federal minister Faisal Vawda has said that ex-spymaster Faiz Hameed was the “architect” and the mastermind in the corruption case Imran Khan was currently facing.

Speaking to reporters in Islamabad, he said, “My compulsion today was to tell the nation that when you say the beneficiary is Imran, […] the biggest is Faiz Hameed.”

He further said that this was a “very small case” and that bigger crimes would be uncovered when things were further probed.
