Kandahar attack: Pakistan refutes allegation of NDS

20 Jul, 2019

Pakistan on Friday rejected the 'baseless' accusations leveled by Afghan intelligence agency, National Directorate of Security (NDS), related to the recent terror attack in Kandahar.
Foreign Office spokesperson Dr Mohammad Faisal took to the Twitter, saying: "Pakistan condemns all acts of terrorism in Afghanistan and hopes that both sides would continue working constructively for durable peace in Afghanistan and the region".
"Pakistan rejects baseless accusations concerning recent terrorist incidents in Afghanistan", he said, adding that the public blame-game is contrary to the spirit of the understanding between leadership of the two countries to address issues through close coordination amongst relevant agencies."
Earlier in the day, the Afghan NDS alleged that the recent Kandahar attack was plotted in Chaman, Balochistan, in which 11 people were killed and scores other injured when Taliban attacked police headquarters in the Afghan city.
