I wouldn't deny anything plainly or out-rightly in this regard but the sourced media outlet is merely an OSINT type that used to get information from here & there. I will even safely assume that the news may be based upon what Khafee said on this Forum.

Lets wait till a more reputable source breaks this news. I have my doubts about how this news is presented in the propakistani site.
