Pakistan on Wednesday shared what it called ‘preliminary findings’ with the Government of India after examining the Indian report on the Pulwama terror attack.
Indian High Commissioner Ajay Bisaria was called to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Islamabad by Pakistan Foreign Secretary Tehmina Janjua and the findings on the Pulwama incident were shared with him, the Pakistan foreign office said in a press release which was shared with the Indian media too.
It said Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan had offered cooperation in the investigation if credible evidence was provided by India. In response to this offer, a ‘paper’ was handed over to Pakistan on 27 February, the release added.
