There is a rule across the world that you can kill people in your defence. They (India) will feel the pain when their bodies would go to their homes.”

On being asked about what message did he want to give to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Miandad replied: “I have already said that India is a sneaky country. We have not kept atomic bombs like this, we will bomb India with them…we will clean India with a nuclear bomb.”
