Security of the Chinese ambassador to Pakistan has been increased following revelations that his life is under threat from a terrorist organization, Geo TV has reported.
In a letter to the joint secretary of the Ministry of Interior by the focal person on China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), the mission asked for assistance for the arrest of a suspected terrorist belonging to the East Turkmenistan Islamic Movement (ETIM).
“Your esteemed agency is kindly requested to enhance the security of Chinese company and Chinese people, meanwhile please arrest this terrorist and hand over to us as soon as possible,” said the letter written on October 19.
Abdul Wali, the suspected member of ETIM, has reportedly entered Pakistan to assassinate the Chinese ambassador.
A search operation to arrest the suspect is also being conducted. Security has also been increased for other Chinese nationals present in Pakistan.
ETIM – which is classed by both the United Nations and the United States as a terrorist group – is known as a militant separatist organisation that seeks an independent state in Xinjiang.
Afghanistan is providing shelter to ETIM terrorists and China must know it !
