ISLAMABAD: Afghan investigators arrived in Islamabad late Sunday to probe an alleged assault of Afghanistan ambassador's daughter, Afghan and Pakistani officials confirmed.

Silsila Alikhil, the daughter of Afghan envoy Najibullah Alikhil, has said she was abducted in the middle of the Pakistani capital of Islamabad on July 16, held for several hours and brutally attacked.

A medical report after Alikhil was admitted to the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences in Islamabad said she had suffered blows to her head, had rope marks on her wrists and legs and was beaten.

While Pakistani authorities are investigating the incident, police said evidence collected did not “corroborate” the kidnaping claim.

As the Kabul government had closed its Islamabad embassy over the case, the probe by Afghan officials will decide whether the country's mission would continue operations or not, a senior diplomat at the embassy told Arab News.

“The leadership will take a decision whether or not to reopen the embassy on the basis of their findings,” the diplomat said, requesting anonymity.

A senior Pakistani intelligence source confirmed the arrival of the four-member investigation team.

“An Afghan delegation arrived in Islamabad Sunday night for the investigation of the incident occurred with the daughter of the Afghan ambassador,” he said.

Members of the Afghan delegation, which consists of officials from the foreign ministry and security agencies, will start talks with Pakistani investigators on Monday.

Prime Minister Imran Khan said in a TV program on Sunday he would personally follow the case, as if Alikhil were his "own daughter."
