Pakistan has told the United Nations that it possesses “credible evidence” that a deadly hostage event aboard a passenger train in Balochistan last month was supported by external forces, and called on the international community to intensify the efforts to hold the perpetrators in charge.
When he spoke at the launch of the victims of the Terrorism Association Network on the UN, Jawad Ajmal said, adviser at Pakistan’s UN mission that the marcharecal of Jaffer Express was orchestrated by militant from Baloch Liberation Army (among others), resulting in the death of over 30 hostages and militants under Safety for safety for safety.
“Pakistan has credible evidence that this attack had external sponsorship from our opponents in the region,” Ajmal said without naming a specific country. He described the incident as a “abominable terrorist attack” and called for stronger global mechanisms to prevent such violence.
Ajmal called for a departmental, unified international reaction to terrorism and expressed concern that despite global strategies, such attacks will continue to rise. “We must look beyond narrow political interests and geopolitical agendas,” he urged and added, “only by confronting the roots of terrorism can we protect future victims.”
He also highlighted Pakistan’s long -standing struggle with militant conditions and noted that the country has lost over 80,000 lives of terrorism over the past two decades. When he paid tribute to the security staff, Ajmal praised the victims of law enforcement and military forces to defend the country.
The Pakistani Diplomat’s remarks came on the basis of the mounting of regional tensions, especially after the killing of 26 tourists in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir last week – an attack New Delhi accused of Islamabad. Pakistan has categorically denied involvement and condemned the violence.
Pakistan, he added, had joined the UN Security Council to condemn the recent Pahagam attack and expressed compassion for the victims’ families and repeated his commitment to regional peace.
