Pak demands international probe into Uri attack

September 26, 2016 19:55

Pakistan has demanded an independent international probe into the terror attack in Uri, dismissing as "baseless" India's allegations that terrorist from Pakistan were involved in it.

Pakistan Prime Minister's Adviser on Foreign Affairs Sartaj Aziz alleged that India always accuses Pakistan without even conducting an investigation into the matter.

"It is not the first time India has levelled baseless allegations against Pakistan," BBC Urdu quoted Aziz as saying.

Any such attack neither benefits Pakistan, nor Kashmir, Aziz said, adding that the attack diverts the world's attention from human rights violations committed by Indian forces in Kashmir.

Diplomatic tensions between India and Pakistan have been rising since the September 18 attack on an army base in Uri in Jammu and Kashmir that killed 18 Indian soldiers.
