Imran Khan-linked ‘Cyphergate’ Row hits Pakistan: US' role confirmed in his ouster? Secret cipher says 'All will be forgiven in Washington.'

A leaked Pakistani diplomatic cable has resurfaced, bringing back the spotlight on former Prime Minister Imran Khan's allegations of a "foreign conspiracy" behind his ouster. The document, known as a cypher, was published by investigative outlet Drop Site and strongly hints at an alleged US-backed conspiracy to topple the then Imran government in Islamabad. The secret diplomatic cipher allegedly details a meeting between Pakistan's then-ambassador to Washington and senior United States State Department official Donald Lu before Khan lost a no-confidence vote in April 2022.
