Pakistan’s foreign ministry said authorities were trying to trace and arrest suspects who desecrated a Hindu temple in Karachi, drawing condemnation from India.

In a statement, the ministry said that investigations were still under way, and that those who attacked the temple on Wednesday before fleeing the scene “will not escape justice and the government will deal with them with the full force of law”.
