In another anti-India propaganda bid, Pakistan on Sunday alleged that an Indian citizen was behind a powerful bomb blast outside the house of terror mastermind Hafiz Saeed in Lahore last month.

Three persons were killed and 24 others injured when the powerful car bomb exploded outside Saeed's residence in Lahore on June 23. No group claimed responsibility for the blast.

Pakistan's National Security Advisor Moeed Yousuf, addressing a press conference alongside the Punjab police chief and Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry, claimed that the mastermind of the attack "is an Indian citizen” with links to an intelligence agency.

He, however, did not identify the alleged suspect.

In the past, India has dismissed Pakistan’s allegations of involvement in some of the terror strikes on its soil.
