Dossier on India handed to UN counter terror chief

UNITED NATIONS: Pakistan’s Ambassador to the United Nations, Munir Akram, has held a meeting with the UN Under-Secretary-General for Counter-Terrorism, Vladimir Voronkov, and gave him the dossier regarding Indian involvement in terrorist activities against Pakistan.

The UN counter-terrorism chief promised to “study the dossier”, which has been prepared by Pakistani agencies after a full investigation of India’s systematic campaign to promote terrorism and subversion in Pakistan, an official of the Pakistani mission said on Friday.

During the meeting, which took place on Thursday, Voronkov also urged India and Pakistan to reduce tensions and engage in a dialogue and pursue a solution in accordance with the UN Charter and Security Council resolutions.

On November 24, Ambassador Akram handed over the same dossier to UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres when he met him. The Pakistani envoy also held a “productive meeting” with the Assistant Secretary-General and Executive Director of the Counter-Terrorism Executive Directorate, Michele Coninsx, on Friday.
