India’s efforts to hold Pakistan accountable for the attack on a camp near the 12 Infantry Brigade headquarters in Uri escalated on Tuesday with Islamabad’s envoy to New Delhi, Abdul Basit, being summoned to the Ministry of External Affairs to be presented with evidence that the attack originated from territory under Pakistan’s control.
The National Investigation Agency earlier announced the arrest of two men it says “facilitated” last week’s strike which claimed the lives of 18 soldiers.
Yasin Khursheed, said to be a resident of Khiliana Kalan in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir’s Muzaffarabad, and Faisal Hussain Awan, a resident of Potha Jahangir, disclosed during interrogation that they were ordered to “facilitate infiltration of a group of four Jaish-e-Muhammad cadre who carried out the Uri army camp attack”, the Ministry of External Affairs said.
