Afghanistan accuses Pakistan for violating trilateral agreement --- The government of Afghanistan on Thursday accused Pakistan for violating a trilateral agreement by attempting to set up military installations along the Durand Line which resulted into clashes between Afghan and Pakistani forces. -- Interior ministry of Afghanistan following a statement said a member of the Afghan border police forces was martyred following the clashes. -- The statement further added that the Pakistani security forces were looking to dig ditches in a bid to set up bunkers within the zero-point area which is a clear violation of the trilateral agreement between Afghanistan-Pakistan and NATO. -- Interior ministry said the Pakistani forces did not consider the repeated calls by Afghan border forces to stop building trenches in zer-point area which resulted to clashes between the two sides. -- Based on the trilateral agreement, setting up military installations within four kilometer of the zero-point is prohibited, interior ministry said, adding that the Pakistani forces were looking to act against the agreement during the past few days. -- Interior ministry also called for immediate halt to build military installations along the Durand Line and within the zero-point area and said a delegation was sent to the area to investigate the incident. - Khaama Press (KP)
