slamabad, Oct. 9 : Perturbed by the recent remarks of US Deputy Chief of Mission Gerald Feierstein, that top Al-Qaeda and Taliban leaders, including the one-eyed Taliban chief Mullah Omar are presently hiding in Quetta, Pakistan has asked the US diplomat to avoid discussing intelligence issues in media.
Sources said Feierstein was summoned by the Foreign Office and was told not to discuss important issues in public.
Chief of Protocol, Ghalib Iqbal, who met Feierstein at the Foreign Office, reportedly told the US diplomat that if there was information regarding the presence of Taliban leaders on Pakistani soil, then it should be shared with the government rather than being discussed in the media.
