Syed Yousaf Raza Gillano Pakistan Prime Minister denied that the country’s intelligence service had any involvement in the suicide bombings in Kabul.

Four Indians, including two diplomats and two security personnel, were among 44 killed Monday when a suicide bomber driving an explosives-laden car rammed into the Indian embassy gate in Kabul, the worst terror act in Afghanistan since the Taliban’s fall and the first attack on any Indian mission in the world.

Afghani officials said, the attack could not have succeeded without the help of foreign intelligence.

Gillani said, “Why should Pakistan destabilize Afghanistan? It is in our interest to have a stable Afghanistan,”

He added, ”And we want stability in the region, as we are also a victim of terrorism and extremism because my own leader, Benazir Bhutto, was assassinated,”

He added, ”She was hit by terrorism. Therefore, it is our firm resolve to fight terrorism and extremism,”

The UN Security Council called for international efforts to bring the perpetrators, organizers, financiers and supporters of the attack to justice.
