New Delhi: Pakistan’s Joint Investigation Team (JIT) has said that the terror attack on the Indian Air Force base in Punjab’s Pathankot on January 02 was ‘staged’ by the Indian authorities with the intention of expanding its vicious propaganda against Pakistan and that Indian authorities had prior information about the attackers.
Pakistan media on Monday reported that the report concludes that the Pathankot attack looked like another false flag operation fully facilitated by the Indian army just to put the blame on Pakistan and to convince the world community that Pakistan is involved in terrorism.
The JIT members visited Pathankot on March 29 where Indian National Investigation Agency (NIA) officials briefed and showed them the route from where the terrorists stormed the airbase.
However, Pakistan media reported that the JIT was not convinced about the evidence provided by NIA in the Pathankot attack and added that the Indian government did not cooperate with the Pakistan probe team and instead attempted to obstruct the investigation.
The JIT is likely to submit its report on the attack to Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif“in the next few days.
India blames Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) chief Masood Azhar for plotting the carnage. JeM is a terror group based in Pakistan.
