Pakistan has accused eight Indian embassy employees of involvement in spying and "terrorism" but stopped short of expelling them, in the latest apparent tit-for-tat move as relations between the two countries deteriorate.
The declaration on Thursday came days after a similar move by New Delhi, which accused six Pakistani diplomats of being part of a spy network, forcing Islamabad to withdraw them from their posts.
"A number of Indian diplomats and staff ... have been found involved in coordinating terrorist and subversive activities in Pakistan under the garb of diplomatic assignments," Nafees Zakariya, spokesman for Pakistan's foreign ministry, told a press briefing in Islamabad.
