A recent audio leak has emerged, Bushra Bibi, the wife of Imran Khan, Chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), and his lawyer Latif Khosa.
The leak suggests potential discord within the family, especially with Imran Khan currently in custody.
In the audio, Bushra Bibi discusses an incident involving Khan's sisters complaining about Khosa's alleged misconduct related to a case.

The conversation revolves around concerns raised by Bushra Bibi regarding Khan's safety, particularly the fear of poisoning when he was held in Attock jail in August.
She had previously written a letter expressing these concerns to the Punjab home secretary.
In the leaked audio, Bushra Bibi indicates that she informed Khan's sisters about her decision to engage Khosa as her lawyer.
She mentions that she conveyed to them that all her cases would now be handled by Khosa.
The ex-first lady reveals that Khan's sisters accused Khosa of misbehavior during a meeting at his office, where they protested against including the poisoning claim in the petition filed in the Islamabad High Court.
Despite the alleged misconduct, Bushra asserts her choice of Khosa as her lawyer.
Khosa, responding to the leaked audio, expresses displeasure and calls it a private conversation between a client and a lawyer.
“Shame on whoever leaked the personal conversation,” says #LatifKhosa stressing that it's disheartening, especially considering it involved a conversation between a “client and a lawyer”. #SamaaTV #BushraBibi #PTI pic.twitter.com/r2qvLWtE3D

He condemns the leak and emphasizes that those responsible should feel ashamed.
Khan's counsel questions the ethics of leaking private conversations and calls for the individuals behind the leak to come forward.
Justice Babar Sattar has reportedly ordered an investigation to identify the source of the audio leaks, and Khosa reiterates this point, urging those leaking such personal audios to present themselves before the court.
