The Pakistan Foreign Office on Tuesday showed serious concerns on the statement issued by the Iranian Interior Minister that Iran would send forces into Pakistan to free five border guards who were kidnapped by the militants on February 6 from the border region about 5 km inside Iranian territory.
The Foreign office spokesperson said, “Pakistan has already informed the Iranian authorities that its FC (Frontier Corps) teams have intensively combed the entire region but could not verify the entry or presence of these Iranian border guards on its territory.
