(UTV | ISLAMABAD) – Pakistan has rejected Indian denial of involvement in the terrorist attack in Lahore saying there is irrefutable evidence of India’s aiding, abetting and financing of this terrorist incident.
In a statement, the Foreign Office Spokesperson, Zahid Hafeez Chaudhri said in the past too, Pakistan has pointed out Indian state sponsorship of terrorism in Pakistan.
He said there is no doubt that the intelligence agency from across the border was involved in planning and executing terrorist attacks against Pakistan.
The Spokesperson said Commander Kulbhushan Jadhav, who had been caught red-handed in 2016, is the most familiar and undeniable face of India’s state-sponsorship of terrorism against Pakistan.
He said use of terrorism as an instrument of state policy by India makes it culpable under international law, UN sanctions regime, and international counter-terrorism conventions.
Zahid Hafeez Chaudhri remarked that it is the collective responsibility of the world community to hold India to account and take practical steps to proceed against the Indian nationals involved in patronage of terrorism against Pakistan.
The Spokesperson said Pakistan’s credentials in the fight against terrorism did not need endorsement by India. Pakistan’s sacrifices and its achievements in fighting terrorism have been recognized by the world.
The Spokesperson said we call upon India to dismantle its terror infrastructure against Pakistan, arrest the perpetrators of the Lahore attack, and bring them to justice without any delay.
