`UN should ensure that Pak fulfills commitment to end terror`

New Delhi, Feb 6 (PTI) India today said the United
Nations should ensure that Pakistan fulfills its commitment to
end terrorism emanating from its soil.

External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee said he had
apprised the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon Thursday about
the details of the Mumbai attacks which were carried out by
elements based in Pakistan.

"I had a detailed discussion (with Ban) in the context of
the terror attack on Mumbai and the material which we have
given to Pakistan and shared with the entire international
community by sending letters to foreign ministers," he told
reporters on the sidelines of a conference on global financial
crisis.

"I requested the UN Secretary General to look into those
aspects and ensure that Pakistan fully implements its own
commitments which it has given to India and the international
community several times," Mukherjee said.

Mukherjee apprised Ban how 10 heavily armed Pakistani
terrorists came from Karachi via sea to Mumbai and struck
terror there for three days from November 26 last year.

The Indian side also told Ban that India has concrete
evidence to show that the attacks were planned in Pakistan and
conducted by elements based in that country.

The dossier in this regard has already been given to
Pakistan with an expectation that they would act against the
perpetrators. PTI
