Pakistan protests 'trespassing' in diplomat's home
Pakistan has protested at what it says is unauthorised Indian trespassing at the home of a senior Pakistani diplomat in Delhi. A Pakistani foreign ministry statement said that six people, whose leader introduced himself as a deputy police commissioner, forcibly entered the home of the Pakistan High Commission's air advisor on Friday and carried out an unauthorised search. It's the second day of a diplomatic row between the two countries; on Thursday India expelled a staff member of the Pakistan High Commission Malik Muhammed Rafique for what it described as activities incompatible with his status -- a term normally used to refer to spying.
