Terrorist groups pose danger to US citizens in Pakistan
With India likely to send a second request to United Nation\'s Sanctions Committee to put Masood Azhar on the banned terrorist list, former home secretary R.K. Singh on Saturday said that Pakistan will not allow Azhar to be put on that.
New Delhi : With India likely to send a second request to United Nation's Sanctions Committee to put Masood Azhar on the banned terrorist list, former home secretary R.K. Singh on Saturday said that Pakistan will not allow Azhar to be put on that.
"Let see how China takes it. But I don't see China agreeing to this until and unless they get a say so from their close friend Pakistan. They will exactly do what Pakistan says because they are strategic allies," Singh told ANI.
"Pakistan is not going to allow Masood Azhar to be put on the international terrorist list," he added.
During the meeting between External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj and her Chinese counterpart Wang Yi on April 18 in Moscow, India is likely to take up the issue of China blocking the move to include Azhar in the United Nations' terrorist list.
Foreign Ministers of Russia, India and China are due to have a trilateral meeting in Moscow.
External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Vikas Swarup said, "India is in constant touch with China on the matter. The issue has already been taken up at the high level. There cannot be two sets of rules for judging terrorists."
Replying to a media query on consular access for former Indian Navy official, Kulbushan Yadav, who is Pakistan's custody, Swarup said India is yet to get access.
Pakistan High Commissioner Abdul Basit, meanwhile subscribed to the Chinese view on Azhar.
China maintains that the designation of any individual as terrorist by the U.N. is a serious issue, and therefore, there was a need for more evidence from India for a better understanding to the ban JeM chief.
