Islamabad: Pakistan’s acting Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has clarified to UN and International media that Pakistan has never allowed David Headley or any other terrorist to set foot on their soil. He further clarified that whenever any terrorist has set foot in Pakistan, they have always rolled out the red carpet for them to ensure their feet never touched Pakistan soil.
At a press conference to answer questions after David Headley’s revelations that he was trained in Pakistan and planned 26/11 Mumbai attack with the help of ISI, Mr Sharif said,” It is totally baseless allegation by India that terrorists used Pakistani soil to attack India. They only used our money, guns, bullets and grenades. At no point did we allow them to use our soil. In fact, no terrorist has ever set foot on Pakistani soil. We have always rolled out the red carpet or made them walk on marble flooring. They never touched our soil.”
“There have also been allegations by that Headley chap that Pakistan Government was complicit in 26/11 attacks, he has been asked to say this by India to tarnish our image of being a peaceful, friendly country. We have always taken care and hired non-state actors to carry out terror attacks in our neighboring countries. Pakistani state has never had any direct involvement in an attack.”
When someone asked Mr Nawaz Sharif whether the people from ISI named by David Headley have been removed from service, Mr Sharif replied, “You must be new to Pakistan. ISI and Army decides how long Pakistan PM works, not the other way round.”
Replying to another question on Pakistan involvement in Pathankot attacks, Mr Sharif replied, “We will take action on Pathankot attack as well. We are awaiting the dossier from India. Once we get that, we will promptly take action and pass that through a shredder.”
Meanwhile, Indian Government has prepared another dossier to send to Pakistan after David Headley’s testimony.
