Pakistan’s HC rejects Indian allegations of Uri attack  

NEW DELHI: Pakistan on Tuesday again strongly rejected Indian allegations of its involvement in Uri army base attack, saying that such accusations were tactic to distract world attention from Indian atrocities in occupied Kashmir.

Pakistan High Commissioner to India Abdul Basit, who was, according to Indian media, summoned by Indian Foreign Secretary S Jaishankar to External Affairs Ministry, categorically rejected allegations of the Uri attack.

Abdul Basit said India should exercise restraint from hurling allegations without any evidence, adding that Pakistan has no link to this attack.

Earlier, Indian media reported that Basit was summoned to the Indian External Affairs Ministry where he was handed over evidence pertaining to the Uri attack.

Basit said, “If India was serious why it was running from international probe.”
