India's external affairs ministry on Thursday called Pakistan foreign ministry's assassination remark false and malicious in an official press release.

In response to media queries regarding remarks made by Pakistan Foreign Ministry, the official Spokesperson, Randhir Jaiswal said, "We have seen media reports regarding certain remarks by Pakistan Foreign Secretary. It is Pakistan’s latest attempt at peddling false and malicious anti-India propaganda."

"As the world knows, Pakistan has long been the epicentre of terrorism, organised crime, and illegal transnational activities. India and many other countries have publicly warned Pakistan cautioning that it would be consumed by its own culture of terror and violence. Pakistan will reap what it sows. To blame others for its own misdeeds can neither be a justification nor a solution,” he further added.


Pakistan said on Thursday had claimed that it has "credible evidence" linking Indian agents to the killings of two Pakistani citizens on Pakistani soil.

"These are killings-for-hire cases involving a sophisticated international set-up spread over multiple jurisdictions," Pakistan's Foreign Secretary Muhammad Syrus Qazi told reporters.

Qazi said the method of assassination was similar to attempts in Canada and the United States.

Pakistan's allegations come months after both Canada and the United States separately accused Indian agents of being linked to assassination attempts on their soil.

India has rejected Ottawa's allegations and has launched an investigation into U.S. allegations.
