"We've already said that in our view this is an unfortunate development," said Pakistan Ministry of Foreign Affairs Spokesperson Tasnim Aslam Khan at a briefing in Islamabad on Friday.
The spokesperson also said they have already confirmed that an 'official' who had already completed his term and was asked to leave Bangladesh. "He has arrived back in Pakistan," according to the Pakistan Foreign Ministry website.
The feedback came when a Pakistani journalist wanted to know whether Pakistan is also going to expel any Bangladeshi diplomat in its reaction.
Mohammad Mazhar Khan, attaché at the consular section of Pakistan High Commission in Dhaka, was withdrawn from Bangladesh on Saturday after intelligence dug out his involvement in terror financing and currency forgery racket.
However, the Pakistan Today in a report quoting the spokesperson said, "Allegations against him are baseless and the incident is unfortunate."
