After there was a bomb blast near the home of international terrorist Hafiz Saeed and the subsequent blast at Lahore’s Johar Town, Pakistan National Security Adviser (NSA) Moeed Yusuf on Sunday (July 5) claimed that the evidence they have gathered during the probe pointed to “Indian-sponsored terrorism.”
In a press briefing, Moeed Yusuf who also holds an American passport said the mastermind of the attack “is an Indian citizen and RAW is in touch with him”, Dawn newspaper reported.
Yusuf said, “The IG said we have intelligence of foreign intelligence agency, so today without a doubt I want to say, (the circumstances) of this entire attack lead to Indian-sponsored terrorism.”
To further substantiate India’s role in the bomb blast, Yusuf also blamed India for thousands of coordinated cyber attacks on the country’s information infrastructure.
“The cyber attacks were carried out so that our investigation could not be successful and it would face obstacles and time could be gained for the network to disperse,” he said, as quoted by Dawn.
“We have no doubt that the Johar Town and cyberattacks are linked. And the number in which (the cyberattacks) were done, there is no doubt that there was state involvement of our neighbour,” he added.
