RAWALPINDI, MAY 12 (DNA): Inter-Services Public Relations Director General (ISPR DG) Lt Gen Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry has confirmed that Pakistan has not captured any Indian pilot during the fresh battles against the neighbouring country.
Speculations and multiple videos have been doing rounds in social media since Pakistan’s retaliatory attack on India, claiming that an Indian female pilot named Shivangi Singh has been arrested in Pakistan after her aircraft was struck.
Addressing the media on Sunday, the armed forces spokesperson was asked if Pakistan has taken an Indian pilot in custody and if the pilot will be returned.
“I can confirm you very clearly that we don’t have any pilot in custody. This is all social media chatter. This is all part of the multiple sources of fake news and propaganda that has been generated from multiple sources,” he said.
The Indian government has also termed the social media claims as fake, urging the public “not to fall for misinformation”.
To another query pertaining to the Indian Air Force (IAF)’s statement that operations are still ongoing, despite the Indian government’s agreeing to the ceasefire, the ISPR DG said Pakistani armed forces are always vigilant and ready to counter any aggression.
“We have proved this on ground multiple times,” he added.
