India not satisfied with progress in Mumbai trial in Pak: PM

Mumbai, January 7 (PTI) India is "not satisfied" with the
pace of progress in the Mumbai terror attack trial in Pakistan
and would like the cases against the suspects "expedited",
Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said.
"Well, we would like those cases to be expedited, beyond
that what can I say. You know what problems we have with
Pakistan. We are not satisfied with the pace those cases have
been allowed to go forward," Singh said.
Singh was talking to reporters after he paid homage to
Mumbai terror attack victims on Thursday at the Taj Hotel
where he had addressed an Infosys function. He also laid a
wreath at the memorial.
The Prime Minister was asked whether he was satisfied
with the way the case against the Mumbai attack suspects is
progressing in Pakistan. The Taj Hotel had borne the brunt of
the three-day siege of the country's financial capital.
Pakistan-based terror group Laskhar-e-Taiba (LeT) has
been blamed for the carnage in November 2008 in which 166
people were killed.
Singh said he has come to Mumbai to pay homage to the
memory of those innocent Indians and some foreign nationals
who died in the wake of the "terrible terrorist onslaught"
on the "gracious" city of Mumbai and on the people of India.
"I sincerely hope and pray that we the nation as a whole
will remain united in tackling the menace that terrorism poses
for civilised persons, civilised societies," he said. PTI
