ISLAMABAD: The reports regarding India’s reaction over Jamaat-ud-Dawa chief Hafiz Muhammad Saeed’s arrest have been read. This was said by Ministry of Foreign Affairs Spokesperson Nafees Zakaria at a weekly briefing on Thursday.
Instead of raising fingers at others, the Indian government should take a look at its own state of affairs, he added. “India itself has been involved in terrorist activities in Pakistan.â€
He also accused the Indian government of violating the United Nations’ resolutions – the only solution to the Kashmir issue. For instance, he maintained, last year the three boys who inadvertently crossed the border from Narowal, still languished in an Indian jail. “We contacted the Indian government over the matter, but so far they have not responded.â€
He added the Indian government has also been issuing illegal documents to non-Kashmiris. Besides, he said, the brutality continues as last week 40 Kashmiris were killed in Indian occupied Kashmir (IoK).
On the occasion, the Foreign Office spokesperson also spoke about the Economic Cooperation Organization (ECO) meeting that is to be held in Pakistan on March 1. He said 10 countries are members of ECO.
At the meeting, Zakaria said they pray for the quick recovery of Syed Ali Shah Geelani, the Hurriyat leader, who is in the intensive care unit.
