Pulwama terror attack on CRPF indigenous, Pakistan was not involved, claims Imran Khan

India Today  

Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan has now said the Pulwama terror attack that left 40 CRPF personnel dead, was an "indigenous thing" that happened in Kashmir. During his US visit, Imran Khan also said that since Jaish-e-Mohammed, a terror group based in Pakistan, claimed responsibility, the country came into the picture. "A Kashmiri boy was radicalised after the brutalities of the Indian security forces and he carried out the attack, but suddenly Pakistan came into the limelight," said Imran Khan. Asked about Hafiz Saeed's seventh arrest that came right ahead of his US visit, Imran Khan said "we do not allow any armed militant groups to operate" in our country.
