Prime Minister Imran Khan won millions of hearts on both side of the border after he decided to return arrested Indian pilot Abhinandan to India as a peace gesture.

During the custody, Abhinandan said that he was extremely impressed by the professionalism of the country’s armed forces.

“Pakistan Army officers are thorough gentlemen and have been professional. Starting from the captain who rescued me from the mob. This is exactly how I expect my army to behave too and I would not change my statement if I return to my country,” Abhinandan.
