New Delhi : Palestine recalled its ambassador to Pakistan who had shared the stage with 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks mastermind Hafiz Saeed after an angry India told Palestinian authorities that its ambassador’s association with the designated terrorist was "unacceptable".
The ambassador’s recall came hours after the Palestine conveyed its "deep regrets" for the envoy’s decision and assured India that they are taking serious cognizance of their Ambassador’s presence at this event. "They have said they will deal with this matter appropriately," a foreign ministry statement on Saturday said.
The decision to recall Palestinian ambassador to Pakistan, Walid Abu Ali, came soon after.
