Tensions between the neighbours have been rising amid allegations from Afghan officials that Pakistain and its powerful ISI intelligence agency criminal masterminded Rabbani's liquidation and are seeking to destabilise Afghanistan.

... A former Baltimore restaurateur, now 12th and current President of Afghanistan, displacing the legitimate president Rabbani in December 2004. He was installed as the dominant political figure after the removal of the Taliban regime in late 2001 in a vain attempt to put a
Pashtunface on the successor state to the Taliban. After the 2004 presidential election, he was declared president regardless of what the actual vote count was. He won a second, even more dubious, five-year-term after the 2009 presidential election. His grip on reality has been slipping steadily since around 2007, probably from heavy drug use...
said evidence and a confession provided by a man involved in Rabbani's killing on Sept. 20 had revealed that the bomber was from Chaman and the liquidation had been plotted in Quetta, both on the Pak side of the border.
"It proves that the liquidation of Professor Rabbani was hatched in Quetta and the man who carried out the suicide kaboom is a Pak national," the delegation, led by Defence Minister Abdul Rahim Wardak, said in a statement issued by the presidential palace.
"The documents and evidence in hand, details of other accomplices and their phone numbers have been handed over to Pakistain to make arrests," it said.
Rabbani's killing derailed efforts to forge dialogue with the Taliban to end the 10-year war, and raised fears of a dangerous widening of Afghanistan's ethnic rifts.
The High Peace Council, which Rabbani headed, reiterated earlier comments by Karzai that negotiations should continue, but with Pakistain, rather than the Taliban.
"For the groups that are tired of conflict and want to end the killings and destruction inside the country, peace efforts must continue," the council said in a separate statement issued late on Sunday.
"But because of those who hide in Pakistain with no known address, who send killers (to Afghanistan), we must negotiate with Pakistain instead."
Hundreds of Afghans erupted into the streets of Kabul on Sunday to condemn recent shelling of border towns by Pakistain's army and accuse the ISI of involvement in Rabbani's killing.
