Protest lodged with Afghanistan over Chitral attack

Foreign Office Islamabad

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan summoned a senior Afghan diplomat to the Foreign Office on Friday and handed him a demarche over the terrorist attack on two border posts in Lower Chitral which left four soldiers martyred on Sept 6.

The Foreign Office demanded that the interim Afghan government stop its soil from being used against Pakistan.

Earlier in the day, the Foreign Office hoped the interim Afghan government would fulfil its obligations and deny the use of its soil by the terrorists for perpetrating acts of terrorism against Pakistan.

“Pakistan has communicated its concerns about the latest incident to the interim Afghan authorities,” Radio Pakistan quoted FO spokesperson Mumtaz Zahra Baloch as saying while responding to the queries of media persons in Islamabad regarding the cross-border attacks.
