Pakistan on Saturday rejected the insinuations contained in the statement issued by the Afghan Foreign Ministry regarding a market in Peshawar. "It is deeply regrettable that a distorted and misleading account of the issue and related events has been presented," a foreign Office statement said.
It is pointed out that the market issue was between a private citizen and a purported bank from Afghanistan. The case was decided in favour of the private citizen in 1998. The recent enforcement action by the local administration occurred after legal remedies were exhausted by the Afghan party to this legal dispute. We reject any comments casting aspersions on the judicial process in Pakistan.
