Rashid is a close aide of Mr Sharif and reports suggest that the anti-army information could not have been leaked to the media without his consent.<br/><br/>The development comes after the publication of a story in Dawn News, which says, Act against militants or face international isolation, civilians tell military. The News agency reported details of a high level civil-military meeting discussing the issue of Pakistan's banned outfits.
