Summary Spokesperson for Pakistan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Tahir Andrabi, said that Inidan allegations were part of a “malicious campaign”.
ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - Pakistan has strongly rejected allegations by India’s Home Minister linking Pakistan to certain arrests in India, describing the claims as baseless propaganda aimed at diverting attention from India’s domestic security challenges.
In response to media queries, spokesperson for Pakistan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Tahir Andrabi, said the allegations were part of what Islamabad described as a “malicious campaign” against Pakistan for narrow domestic political gains.
“Pakistan strongly rejects the allegations made by India’s Home Minister, attempting to link Pakistan with certain arrests in India,” Andrabi said, adding that such claims were intended to shift attention away from India’s internal security challenges.
The spokesperson also accused India of suppressing minorities and dissent at home, while alleging that New Delhi was involved in terrorism and destabilising activities abroad.
Pakistan further rejected what it called “unfounded Indian insinuations,” saying they could not divert international attention from allegations of Indian involvement in targeted assassinations, terrorism and subversion in foreign territories.
Andrabi referred to the case of Kulbhushan Jadhav, a former Indian naval officer who was convicted by a Pakistani military court on charges including espionage and terrorism. Pakistan cited the case as evidence of what it described as India’s direct involvement in subversive activities inside Pakistan.
The spokesperson said Pakistan had repeatedly shared evidence with the international community regarding India’s alleged involvement in terrorism and destabilising activities in Pakistan.
“Pakistan urges the international community to reject baseless Indian allegations and hold India accountable for its state-sponsored terrorism in the region,” Andrabi said.
The statement was issued from Islamabad amid renewed tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbours and comes as both countries continue to trade accusations over security and terrorism-related issues.
