US refutes reports of its officials’ ‘escape’ from Peshawar

The US embassy on Monday refuted media reports concerning US officials ‘escape’ from a Peshawar motorway checkpost and taking refuge in the US Consulate in Peshawar “US officials did not try to crush anyone and reports of their escape are entirely false,” a US embassy spokesman said in a statement, adding that the US officials were travelling from Islamabad to Peshawar and had the no-objection certificate.
He said they were not stopped at the checkpost but were waved on, adding that US officials in Pakistan abided by the laws of the country.
