That is not quite true; it is on a par with saying that French, German,
etc are written with English letters - true at one level, until you
try to write something with an acute accent, umlaut, etc.

Urdu is written in an extended form of the Arabic alphabet; it has
letters which you might not find in an Arabic character set.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urdu and scroll down to Urdu script
will clarify....
