RAWALPINDI: Pakistan on Friday summoned officials of the Afghan embassy to the General Headquarters (GHQ) in Rawalpindi to protest over the recent terrorists attack reportedly carried out from Afghan soil.

According to the Director-General Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Major General Asif Ghafoor, the Afghan officials were handed a list of 76 terrorists hiding in Afghanistan.

The Afghan government was asked to either take “immediate action” against them or hand them over to Pakistan.

The move comes after a surge in recent terror attacks in Pakistan including the bombing at Sufi shrine of Lal Shahbaz Qalandar in Sehwan, in Sindh, which killed at least 75 people and injured more than 100.
