ISI wanted to defame Hina Rabbani for Bilawal romance, says British Telegraph report

Islamabad, Sep 30: Pakistan's spy agency ISI  has denied the charge levelled in a British newspaper  that it was running a defamation campaign through a Bangladeshi tablaid  against Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar and  PPP

"One PPP official told The Daily Telegraph that the ISI expects the United Nations' Working Group on Enforced and Involuntary Disappearances to recommend senior army and intelligence officials be charged for their role and blame Ms Rabbani Khar for allowing the delegation into the country. 

“They are not happy with her,” the official said. “The UN mission received a cold reception but Hina was called in by the president to meet him and the army chief. She crossed some red line.” 
The British newspaper writes: " Claims of an affair between Hina Rabbani Khar, the 34-year-old glamorous foreign minister, and the 24-year-old scion of the country's most powerful dynasty have fuelled feverish speculation and outrage in Pakistan, since they were reported in a Bangladeshi tabloid earlier this week. 

"Ms Rabbani Khar and her husband have dismissed the claims as “reprehensible" and "trash", but they have been reported widely in Pakistan where they spawned conspiracy theories among Islamabad's political classes.
