    The former Pakistan President accused India of adopting double standards on terrorism.
     
    "You (India) cannot say your terrorist is a terrorist but our terrorist is not a terrorist," he said.

    "You (India) should also be prepared for what would follow (if Indian army strikes)," he said.
