"We are aware of the truth. So we don't have to get carried away by any statement. The truth is known to us and our establishment.

On Tuesday, Imran Khan in an event organised by Washington-based think-tank U.S. Institute of Peace said, "It was a Kashmiri boy radicalised by the brutality of the security forces. He blew himself up. But because this group claimed responsibility, which was in India as well, Jaish-e-Mohammed is operating in India — but Pakistan suddenly came in the limelight."
He also admitted that around 30,000-40,000 armed people, who have been trained and fought in parts of Afghanistan and Kashmir, were in Pakistan and accused the former governments of providing the safe havens to militants groups.
