| LONDON: Pakistan's envoy to Afghanistan said on Saturday that Islamabad has called for an impartial investigation into Friday's Kabul jail siege and has asked the Afghan government to hand over the bodies of the three Pakistanis killed in the incident. Speaking to BBC Radio's Pushto service, Ambassador Rustam Shah Mohammad said that the Afghan government had until now not formally conveyed its response to Islamabad's request. He said he believes that almost 30 Pakistanis are being held in the Pul-i-Charki jail on the outskirts of Kabul. On the number of Pakistani prisoners in Afghan jails, Shah Mohammad said that most had been released, with only a few remaining in detention. He said it was unclear whether or not those prisoners who had come to Afghanistan three years ago had done so to fight US forces or had been arrested in other parts of the country on different charges and transferred to the Kabul jail. |
