In addition, he lashed out at Maryam Nawaz, telling her to refrain from creating bogus audios with deep-fake software.
\”If there is any evidence, show it; the public is well-informed about the reality of your phoney audios and films,\” he continued, adding that. \”If there is any evidence, show it.\”
