India has strongly hit out at Pakistan at the U.N., saying the world knows where perpetrators of the 2008 Mumbai, 2016 Pathankot and 2019 Pulwama terror attacks came from and it is “regretful” that facilitators of these “dastardly” acts continue to enjoy state support and hospitality.
Counsellor in India’s Permanent Mission to the U.N. Rajesh Parihar began his remarks to the open briefing of the Counter-Terrorism Committee on Monday by recalling that exactly three years ago on February 14, 2019, 40 brave men of Indian security personnel were killed in a “dastardly terrorist attack” in Pulwama carried out by Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM).
“The world had witnessed the horrors of the 2008 Mumbai terror attack, the 2016 Pathankot terror attack, and the 2019 Pulwama terrorist attack. We all know from where the perpetrators of these attacks came from,” Mr. Parihar said, delivering India’s national statement at the open briefing on the work of the Counter-Terrorism Committee Executive Directorate (CTED) with the member states of South and South-East Asia.
