In a tit-for-tat, Pakistan has expelled a Bangladeshi woman diplomat and asked her to leave the country by Thursday, days after a Pakistani woman diplomat was sent packing over accusations of having links with the banned Jamayetul Mujahideen Bangladesh militant group.Pakistan`s foreign office has issued an order for the expulsion of Bangladeshi diplomat Moushumi Rahman, a counsellor and head of chancery in Islamabad, Pakistan`s Samaa TV reported.Islamabad`s move came apparently in a retaliation to the expulsion of its diplomat from Dhaka in December.A Bangladeshi foreign ministry official preferring anonymity said in Dhaka that Pakistan had on Tuesday summoned Bangladesh`s high commissioner in Islamabad Sohrab Hossain."Moushumi Rahman accompanied our high commissioner to Pakistan`s foreign ministry where a senior officer of theirs verbally asked (Hossain) to send Moushumi back to Dhaka by Thursday, citing no reason," the official said.Bangladesh on Wednesday deplored the Pakistani counter-action. "This appears to be a face-saving move in the part of Pakistan as it was forced to recall a diplomat of theirs..." state minister for foreign affairs Shahriar Alam said.However, Samaa TV reported that the Bangladeshi diplomat was expelled for "violation of diplomatic norms". -PTI
