Pakistani envoy to the Dutch Shujjat Rathore informed that all Pakistanis were safe after a terrorist attack on a tram in the Dutch city of Utrecht.

On March 15, a gunman opened fire in Utrecht, killing three people and wounding several others in what officials said was a possible terrorist attack.



Armed counter-terrorism police launched a huge manhunt for the attacker, urging local residents in one of the Netherlands’ biggest cities to stay indoors in case of further incidents. Police released a picture of the Turkish-born suspect, naming him as 37-year-old Gokman Tanis, and warning people not to approach him.
