A formal announcement on banning the Haqqani militant network is "still under consideration," Pakistan's ambassador to the United States said.
On being asked to give a timeline for a formal announcement on the subject, Jalil Abbas Jilani said on Tuesday that the issue was "in the works," reported The Express Tribune.
He was speaking to the press at a Washington media roundtable organised by the Christian Science Monitor newspaper.
Pakistan had earlier announced its decision to ban the Haqqani network in January and had said that a formal announcement would come "within weeks."
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry had implored Pakistan to ban the terror groups that threatened Afghan, Indian and U.S. interests, including the Haqqani network.
