ISLAMABAD: Pakistan has strongly condemned the blasts in Boston Marathon that killed at least three people and injured over 100 others.
“The government and the people of Pakistan are deeply shocked and saddened at the cowardly terrorist attacks in Boston during the marathon,” Pakistan said in an official statement.
Monday’s explosions at the Boston Marathon, one of America’s top sporting events, forced cities from New York to Los Angeles to go on high alert and conjured up memories of the world-changing 9/11 attacks.
Pakistan is the biggest non-NATO ally of the U.S. in war against terror and it lost over 49,000 lives including soldiers and civilians in the war since 2001.
“This despicable act has resulted in the loss of precious human lives, including children’s. Our condolences and prayers are with the victims and their families during this difficult time. The government of Pakistan condemns this heinous act of terrorism in the strongest possible terms and hopes that the perpetrators of this barbaric act will be brought to justice,” reads the statement.
Meanwhile, Pakistani Taliban’s have also denied any involvement in the blasts.
