At least two officials said it did not seem to be a technical issue with the missile system and was likely a human error, while saying that the CoI will confirm the exact nature of the accident.

Several officials with knowledge of the missile system stated that there were a series of checks and balances built into the high-end missile system, while ruling out the possibility of a technical defect. “There are a series of software locks which are authorised at various levels, after which there are two manual keys before the countdown can be initiated,” one of the officials explained, also on condition of anonymity. There is a high-level of redundancy built into the system, another official said.

The IAF had constituted a CoI headed by an Air Vice Marshal, a two-star officer, to probe the incident that occurred on March 9, which Pakistan military said was a supersonic surface-to-surface missile flying at three times the speed of sound at 40,000 feet ending up 124 km inside Pakistan and damaging some civilian property.

In a statement to Parliament on March 15, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said that during “routine maintenance and inspection,” a missile had been “accidentally released” at around 7 p.m. and it had been later learned that the missile had landed inside the territory of Pakistan. In addition, a review of the standard operating procedures (SOP) for “operations, maintenance and inspections” was being conducted, he said.

Without identifying the missile in question, Mr. Singh had said it was “very reliable and safe”. However, defence officials stated that it was a BrahMos missile.

Pakistan’s former prime minister Imran Khan has been charged under the anti-terror act following accusations of threats to police and a magistrate, after a fiery speech to supporters at the weekend.

Khan lost power in a no-confidence vote in April. He has been staging popular anti-government protests, escalating political tensions in the country as he seeks to return to office.

Khan himself appeared to still be free and had not immediately addressed the police charge sheet being lodged against him. Pakistan’s opposition Tehreek-e-Insaf party (PTI), Khan’s political party, published online videos showing supporters surrounding his home to potentially stop police from reaching it. Hundreds remained there early Monday.

The terrorism charges come over a speech Khan gave in Islamabad on Saturday, in which he vowed to sue police officers and a female judge and alleged that a close aide had been tortured after his arrest.

India's government has sacked three air force officers for the "accidental firing of a missile" into Pakistan in March.

The incident had escalated tensions between the two nuclear-armed nations.

Delhi had blamed the "deeply regrettable" incident on a "technical malfunction" during routine maintenance.

Islamabad warned Delhi to "be mindful of the unpleasant consequences of such negligence" and to avoid a repeat.

The officers responsible for the 9 March incident have been terminated from service, the Indian Air Force said in a statement on Tuesday.
