ISLAMABAD: Adviser on Interior Rehman Malik on Saturday said Pakistan restored logistic supplies to the Nato forces in Afghanistan, which was temporarily suspended for security reasons.
The supply was affected as the government had beefed up security on the Jamrud Road on Friday evening on receiving reports about the abduction of around 20 personnel of the Frontier Corps (FC).
On the other hand, Federal Defence Minister Ahmed Mukhtar said fuel supply was suspended amid fears of attacks from the militants.
According to local media reports, Interior Adviser Rehman Malik said the fuel supply was suspended after kidnap of 20 FC men.
Political administration officials said the consignments were stopped due to security reasons as they had received threats from Taliban.
They added that they had asked the government to deploy the Frontier Corps and Levies force from Takhta Baig checkpost up to Torkham border to ensure safe passage of oil tankers and consignments meant for the US forces.
