Pakistan on Thursday blamed 'foreign elements' for the recent Quetta suicide bombing that killed 74 people, mostly lawyers, in the restive Balochistan province. Zakaria also rejected the Indian allegations that Pakistan military aided infiltration attempts by militants along the LoC. Claiming that India was fomenting instability in Pakistan, Foreign Office (FO) spokesman Nafees Zakaria said, "Indian intelligence agencies have remained involved in subversive activities in Pakistan especially in Balochistan and Karachi." He further said that Pakistan has made no distinction between terrorist groups and was targeting them through a sustained military effort. The spokesperson also expressed concern on the "continuous human rights violations in Kashmir" and asked the international community to raise voice against it.
