Government backing militants: Pakistan opposition senator
A Pakistani opposition senator accused the government of hiding details of the probe into the involvement of Pakistani nationals in the Pathankot terror attack, prompting Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif to announce that the findings would be made public.
Islamabad
Pakistan Peoples’ Party (PPP) senator Farhatullah Babar during a session of upper house of the Parliament, on Friday lambasted the Sharif government over its failure to respond to his query about details of the January 2 attack on the Indian airbase.
The Express Tribune reported that the senator accused the government of misleading the Senate by deliberately concealing information from them and went to the extent of alleging that the government was patronising militants.
He said government had failed to respond to question asked four months ago. “Has the Indian government provided any facts/ information to the Pakistani government? And what is the latter doing in this regard?” he had asked. The queries, however, went unanswered.
