Partly Facetious: Does Malik stay in a hotel?

"Rehman Malik met with Altaf Hussain in London."
"I know, I saw the photograph as well."
"What do you make of it?"
"Where did they meet?"
"Does it matter?"
"Yes it does, it would show who is heavier."
"Malik may be half a size smaller but..."
"Don't be facetious, you know what I meant by being heavier."
"I am not sure whether they met at MQM headquarters in London or they met at the Embassy or Malik's hotel room or..."
"Does Malik stay in a hotel? I thought his family lived in London and thought he stayed with them?"
"I am not sure where he is staying but you would agree with me when I say one never knows why Malik does what he does."
"No, I don't agree with you. He does what he does after receiving instructions and he says what he says with the explicit understanding that he can deny it."
"But shouldn't it be the other way round to be believable. I mean when you say something on television and then deny it people know you are lying but when you do something as a minister you can always lay the blame on others."
"You are being logical here? Has PhD Malik ever been logical about what he says? He says what he says on his own but he does what he does only after receiving instructions from his boss."
"I get it, so the meeting between Malik and Altaf bhai that a photographer captured for eternity was to show the people that the two parties are on the same page."
"Correct, and even though the picture must have angered Zulfiqar Mirza..."
"All Mirza needs to lose his temper is for anyone to whisper the name Rehman Malik in his ear and the resulting explosion is worse than a terror attack."
"But the PhD Malik doesn't care as long as his boss is on his side."
"The degree..."
"Take it back and be damned."
"Dear, dear, an unearned degree is worse than..."
"Than what? An income not kosher! Smoke that in your pipe!"
