Washington, May 22 (PTI) The United States has said it is
"satisfied" with cooperation from Pakistan on investigation
into the failed Times Square bombing over which several people
have been detained in that country.
"We are satisfied with the cooperation that we are
receiving from Pakistan in this investigation," State
Department spokesperson, P J Crowley, told reporters on
Friday.
Crowley said some people have been taken into custody in
Pakistan, but deferred the questions in this regard to
Pakistani authorities.
His comments came three weeks after Pakistani-American
terror suspect Faisal Shahzad was arrested by the US federal
authorities in New York on charges of plotting a car bombing
at the Times Square on May 1.
Investigations have held the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan
(TTP) responsible for the attempted bombing
"We just had a high-level visit to Pakistan by General
(Retd James) Jones, the National Security Adviser; and Leon
Panetta, the CIA Director," Crowley said.
The two top US officials were in Islamabad early this
week.
In a joint statement issued after their meetings in
Islamabad, the two countries pledged to work together to
combat terrorism in Pakistan. PTI LKJ
