Vindicating India's stand on involvement of Pakistani establishment behind Pathankot attack in January this year, a senior Pakistani Senator accused the Nawaz Sharif government of patronising terrorists. PPP Senator Farhatullah Babar on Friday put the government in the dock over Pathankot attack.

Babar accused the Sharif government of misleading the upper house by deliberately concealing information about the terror attack in which three security personnel lost their lives while six Pakistani terrorists were killed.

"Why else did the government not share details of the investigation into the alleged involvement of Pakistani nationals in the Pathankot attack with the House," Babar asked.

The PPP leader further said, "Has the Indian government provided any facts or information to the Pakistani government? And, what is the latter doing in this regard?"
