Pakistan will “soon” ask India to allow its team of investigators probing the Pathankot terror attack to visit the site of the assault, the country’s Interior Minister said today.“We will soon ask India to let our special investigation team experts to visit Pathankot’s attack place,” Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan told reporters in Taxila near here.Khan said the officials who were part of the Special Investigation Team have held several meetings. The SIT was set up by PM Nawaz Sharif last month to work on the leads provided by India on the involvement of Jaish-e-Mohammed militants from Pakistan in the attack.Pakistan officials say the planned visit to Pathankot will help in the completion of the probe.
