ISLAMABAD:
Hours after Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar expressed his grief and concern on Friday over the execution of Bangladeshi Jamaat-e-Islami’s leader in Dhaka, the foreign office in an official statement hoped that the spirit of reconciliation will prevail.

According to a statement released by the Foreign Office on Friday evening, it noted "Pakistan’s policy to interfere in the affairs of any country," events unfolding in Bangladesh were being closely followed.


“We wish the brotherly people of Bangladesh well and hope that spirit of reconciliation and an atmosphere, free of violence, will prevail.”

The statement added that concerns raised by the international community and human rights organisations on the way recent trials have been conducted, which have added to the current instability in Bangladesh, have also been noted.
