The complaint was lodged by the Pakistani de- legation in a letter to Sir Pierson Dixon of Britain, Council President. It was issued on, the eve of report by, the Swedish representative, Më Güüdke Jar- ring, to the Security Council on his recant efforts to find a way out of the ǹìnb-year-old Käshäält dispute.
