General (Retd.) Pervez Musharraf has said that if India accuses Pakistan Army for intrusion in Kargil, it should not ignore what the Indian forces did in East Pakistan and Siachen sector.
In an interview with NDTV, General (Retd.) Musharraf noted that the spy agencies of both the countries have been at daggers drawn.
In reply to the question about statement made by Colonel Hussain in his book that claimed 11-km intrusion of Pak forces inside Indian territory, Musharraf stated, “Well, if we are the rogues in Kargil, then you were the rogues in East Pakistan and Siachen.”
Answering another question about Colonel Hussain’s deliberations, the retired Chief of Army Staff, Musharraf stated that Line of Control is not a permanent international boundary and made it clear that India also entered Siachen on the same grounds.
When the interviewer insisted on Pervez Musharraf’s spending time with the troops in Kargil, he said that he had been a brave soldier always leading from the front. However, he did not straightforwardly deny what the interviewer said.
It merits mentioning here that India had accused Pakistan for intrusion in Kargil back in 1999.
