India-Pakistan Diplomatic Row Worsens As Dozens Of Staff Are Expelled
Indian High Commission officials Dwimu Brahms and Selvadhas Paul sit in a car after their release from the Pakistan authorities for the accusation of been involved in a hit-and-run incident, as they return to India at the India Pakistan Wagah Border Post about 35 km from Amritsar on June 22, 2020.
The men returned to India on Monday, where they “provided graphic details of the barbaric treatment that they experienced”, the foreign ministry claimed. The ministry said it would also “reciprocally reduce its own presence in Islamabad to the same proportion”. “The Indian government’s smear campaign against Pakistan cannot obfuscate the illegal activities in which the Indian High Commission officials were found involved in,” the statement added — an apparent reference to a June 16 traffic incident in Islamabad that two Indian officials allegedly fled.
