Afghan nationals attacked the Pakistani consulate in Frankfurt on Sunday, pelting the building with stones and desecrating the Pakistani flag.
Media reports indicate that the attack occurred during a protest by Afghan citizens. Videos circulating on social media show the protesters storming the consulate, throwing stones, and removing the Pakistani flag. Reports also suggest that the attackers attempted to burn the flag. German police have not made any arrests so far.
Details reveal that 8 to 10 Afghan nationals were involved in the incident and fled after taking down the Pakistani flag.
In a statement released by the Foreign Office, Pakistan expressed deep concern over the breach of security at its consulate, which endangered the lives of its diplomatic staff. The attack is seen as a serious violation of the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations, 1963, which mandates the host government to protect consular premises and ensure the safety of diplomats.
The Foreign Office has formally conveyed its protest to the German government, demanding immediate action to uphold the provisions of the Vienna Convention. Pakistan’s government has urged German authorities to implement stringent measures to secure its diplomatic missions and staff in Germany.
Additionally, Pakistan has called on German officials to promptly arrest and prosecute those responsible for the attack and address any security lapses that led to the incident.
German authorities have assured Pakistani diplomatic officials in Frankfurt of a thorough investigation into the incident. According to foreign media, several individuals have been arrested following the circulation of videos on social media, and interrogations are ongoing.
