Pak Regrets ‘Insinuations’ over Kabul Bombing

Issuing a strong condemnation for the Thursday bombing outside the Indian embassy in Kabul, Islamabad has regretted the “baseless insinuations” linking it to the attack.

Pakistani Foreign Office spokesman Abdul Basit condemning Thursday’s “dastardly act of terrorism close to the Indian embassy in Kabul”, said Indian officials and media were blaming Pakistan for the attack.

“Regrettably the Indian officials and media continue to make baseless insinuations against Pakistan. These have become impulsive reactions betraying a strange mindset,” Basit said in a statement issued late on Saturday.

Basit said the attack near the Indian embassy in the Afghan capital was followed by “terrible terrorist attacks” in Peshawar, Islamabad and Rawalpindi that caused “huge loss of lives and injury to innocent persons”.
