| No Pak-US joint probe into Mohmand attack yet: army |
| 2008-06-17 |
| Pakistan Army spokesman Maj Gen Athar Abbas said on Monday that he was unaware of the arrival of any US team to Pakistan for a joint probe into the Mohmand agency incident in which 11 Pakistani troops, including a major, were killed in an airstrike by US-led coalition forces in Afghanistan. “We do not have any information about the arrival of a US team, nor have we been contacted by any such team for a joint probe,” Abbas told Daily Times. He said that although Pakistan had accepted the US offer to investigate the attack together, level and modalities in this regard were yet to be settled. US Embassy spokeswoman Elizabeth Colton refused to comment when asked about the arrival of a US team to Pakistan. She confirmed however that US had made the offer of a joint probe. Aaj TV however quoted its sources in the US diplomatic circles as saying that a Pak-US joint investigation into the Mohmand Agency attack has already begun. |
