In a protest against 'lack of cooperation' from Pakistani security forces, the Consulate General of
Afghanistan in Peshawar has been closed for an unspecified time.
An official at the mission confirmed that consulate closed operations on Tuesday after vehicles of their diplomatic staff were stopped at a security checkpoint.
"The vehicles were stopped even though they had diplomatic registration numbers," the Express Tribune quoted the officials as saying adding the mission had stopped working to register protest with the Pakistan government.
According to reports, the Afghan Embassy also confirmed the development.
