Did Thomas have a Pakistan connection?

Thomas is said to have reached Taxila in western Pakistan when Gondophares 1 (Kondaiappar?) was King. (Gaspar, as he was called in Persia / Armenia, might have been one of the three Magi who visited the young child Jesus in Bethlehem). Thomas preached the gospel of Jesus Christ and a few believed. He is also said to have built a palace for the King as Thomas was brought in from Syria by his minister Habban (Appan?). http://www.indianchristianity.com/html/chap4/chapter4a.htm.
