ANI Islamabad [Pakistan]

Pakistan High Commissioner to the United Kingdom Sahibzada Ahmed Khan landed in hot water over his "irresponsible activities" at an event and was summoned back to Pakistan by the Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi.

Qureshi took to Twitter to express his distress about the situation and further asked him to provide the explanation for his conduct. "I am dismayed by the actions of our High Commissioner to the UK and have asked him to return to Pakistan and provide an explanation for his behaviour at the IPPA awards held in London," he tweeted.

This came into light after the video of the event went viral on the social media in which the Pakistan envoy can be seen.

 

The incident allegedly took place during an event in London held at O2 Arena on September 9, wherein the envoy was called onstage to declare the winner of an award category.
