Interpol notice vindicates India's stand: Krishna

New Delhi, Aug 26 (PTI) With Interpol issuing Red
Corner Notice against Jamaat-ud Dawa (JuD) chief Hafiz Saeed,
India Wednesday said the development vindicates its stand on
his involvement in Mumbai terror attacks and that Pakistan
should act on the basis of evidence collected "painstakingly".

Indian External Affairs Minister S M Krishna said the
world should take note of Interpol notice and come to their
own conclusions.

"Interpol has issued Red Corner Notice for Saeed's
involvement... It is a vindication of the stand the Government
of India has taken," he told reporters while commenting on
Tuesday's development.

Krishna said "the perpetrators of the Mumbai attacks
will have to be brought to justice. We have painstakingly
collected evidence to convey the involvement of these
persons."

To a question regarding the Interpol notice, the
minister said, "I think the world should take note of these
developments and then they will have to come to their own
conclusions."

"India can only do this much and nothing beyond that.
We have done whatever we can and will continue to impress on
decidability of curbing terror," he said.

Asked about Pakistan's contention so far that the
evidence given by India on Saeed was not enough to prosecute
him, Krishna described it as "unfortunate". PTI
