Pak Army criticizes India-Afghanistan ties using Quranic verse

Pakistan Army spokesman Lt Gen Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry invoked a Quranic verse at an official press conference in Rawalpindi.

He responded to Afghan Taliban minister's remark that India and Afghanistan 'share the same DNA'.

Chaudhry said the verse instructs Muslims not to befriend 'kaafirs' (disbelievers).

The comment has triggered fresh controversy over India-Afghanistan ties.
