Pakistan PMO shares photos of Army Chief Asim Munir, missing rumors after Pahargam attack | Indian News
Rumors of the disappearance of Pakistan Army Chief Syed As Syed Asim Munir was circulating as tensions intensified after the Pahargam terrorist attacks in Jamu and Kashmir killed 27 civilians. Many Indian media reports citing local sources said Munier was missing or hid in Rawalpindi bunker – the report could not be confirmed independently.
Pakistan PMO Post Group Photos
The Pakistan Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) objected to growing speculation, tweeting a collective photo from Abbottabad Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif sitting at General Munier. The title of the tweet is:
“Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif, Army Chief of Staff Syed Asim Munir (NIM), an officer of PMA Kakul, in a group photo of the graduation officers of Abbottabad PMA Kakul’s 151st long-term course. April 26, 2025.”

This step is interpreted as an effort to prove that Munir is still active and on duty.
India suspends treaty in India’s waters
India reportedly suspended the Indian Waters Treaty after intelligence reports placed Pakistan-based groups in the Pahalgam attack, a historic first in tensions between the two major nuclear powers. Islamabad criticized the action as “illegal.”
Munier’s controversial remarks
General Munier also became the focus of attention for inciting remarks. A few days ago, he called Kashmir the “jugate vein” of Pakistan. Munir once again spoke at the event in Abbottabad, repeating the “two-state theory” that Hindus and Muslims are “different in every way.”
