The processing times for Pakistan are averging about 6 - 8 weeks. The most that you could end up waiting is 120 days +.

After 14 weeks you can call the embassy and they are obliged to give you an update on the processing of the Visa.

Ergo: Nothing to panic about, just make a few more cups of tea and try not to think about it.

No Attesting a UK Visa!! How can they refuse on this? They could easily verify its authenticity.

Seems a country specific requirement dictated by the local BHC, e.g. - in Pakistan.
