Afghanistan defends terror intelligence given to Pakistan
A rift between Afghanistan and Pakistan deepened today when the Afghan government insisted its intelligence about Taliban and al-Qaida fugitives allegedly hiding in Pakistan was accurate, after Pakistan’s leader said it was outdated.
Karim Rahimi, a spokesman for Afghan President Hamid Karzai, said his government would present Islamabad with further intelligence about the militants’ whereabouts and that it was “hopeful that measures will be taken”.
