Pakistan has thanked India for its cooperation in reuniting a five-year-old boy with his Pakistani mother nearly a year after he was 'deceitfully' taken to India by his father.

A five-year-old boy, who was "deceitfully" brought to India by his father a year ago, has been reunited with his mother in Pakistan at the Wagah border after Indian authorities handed him over on Saturday.

The US Defense Department has neither sought nor received assurances that the Pakistani army will not stage a coup even though there is near-open conflict between the civilian and military leadership, a Pentagon spokesman said on Wednesday.
