Pakistan on Friday summoned India’s Deputy High Commissioner here and lodged a protest over the National Investigation Agency’s (NIA) decision not to oppose bail to Swami Aseemanand, an accused in the case of the 2007 Samjhauta blasts in which 42 Pakistanis were among 68 killed.
Foreign Office (FO) said that Deputy High Commissioner JP Singh met the Director General (SA& SAARC), who lodged a protest against the decision of the National Investigation Agency (NIA) to not oppose the bail granted to Aseemanand on “Special leave Permission.”
