ISLAMABAD, March 3 (Xinhua) -- Pakistan on Thursday called for understanding with India for progress about the probe into the january attack on an Indian airbase that killed at least 7 soldiers.
The move from the Foreign Ministry came a day after Indian Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar said in reported comments that Pakistani non-state actors were behind the Pathankot attack but added "they couldn't have carried it out without the support of the Pakistani establishment."
The Foreign Ministry spokesman Nafees Zakaria regretted what he called the Indian blame game on Pathankot terror attack.
"Cooperation and understanding is need of the hour to take the investigation into Pathankot incident forward," Zakaria said at his weekly briefing.
The Indian authorities had blamed the Pakistani banned militant group "Jaish-e-Mohammad" for the attack. Days later the Pakistani authorities arrested chief of the group, Masood Azhar, and some other members and also sealed several of its religious schools.
