ISLAMABAD – Pakistan decided to enter into an agreement with Afghanistan to stop the signals of Afghan SIMs in Pakistani areas, local media reported quoting official sources said on Thursday.

The government of Pakistan had taken the stance that the Afghan made SIMs are being used for terrorism in Pakistan, reports said. Earlier, Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Director General Lieutenant General Asim Bajwa in a media briefing said that the terrorists who attacked Bacha Khan University were carrying mobile SIM cards of Afghanistan origin and one terrorist’s phone kept receiving calls from Afghanistan even after he was killed.
