Asked whether the Pakistani team will be given access to strategic Pathankot airbase, Rijiju said,"we will allow them to visit wherever necessary" for the investigation.
On reports that New Delhi has given clearance for visas for a six-member Pakistani SIT team, Rijiju, Union Minister of State for Home, said no decision has been taken on visa as Islamabad has not yet conveyed about the composition of the probe team.
"When a formal request will come, we will take a decision on visa," he said.
Six Pakistani terrorists, suspected to be belonging to Jaish-e-Muhammed, had attacked the airbase on January 2 in which seven security personnel were killed. In the gun-battle, all six terrorists were also killed.
