India made no request: Pak

ISLAMABAD, JULY 10. Pakistan today dismissed reports that India had requested it to hand over the men who hijacked Indian Airlines' Kathmandu-New Delhi flight IC-814 last December.

``How can the Indians make such a request. How should the Indians presume that the hijackers are in Pakistan,'' a foreign office spokesman said in response to queries.

``We are against terrorism and are, in fact, the victims of terrorism,'' he said. The spokesman said Pakistan had received no request from India for the extradition of any hijacker.
