Pak examining fresh evidence against Saeed: Malik

Rezaul H Laskar

Islamabad, Aug 28 (PTI) Pakistan has said it will
examine the fresh evidence provided by India on the basis of
which Interpol issued a Red Corner Notice against JuD chief
Hafiz Mohammad Saeed, the prime accused in planning and
executing the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks.

"We will examine it (the Red Corner Notice)," Pakistan
Interior Minister Rehman Malik said in response to a question
on the Interpol notice issued for Saeed at a news conference
in London Thursday.

Malik said "certain procedures were required to
pursue" the (Interpol) notice.

Interpol circulated the notice for Saeed on Tuesday
after a special court in Mumbai (India's commercial capital)
issued a non-bailable arrest warrant for the JuD chief for his
involvement in planning and executing the Mumbai terror
attacks.

Malik said Pakistan will never allow anyone to use its
territory "against India or anyone else".

India recently handed over to Pakistan the latest
dossier on the Mumbai attack that provides extensive
information on Saeed's contacts with the 10 terrorists who
carried out the strikes and his role in training and
motivating them.

Malik said Pakistan has received this latest dossier
from India but needs to examine whether "it meets the
procedural requirements". He added, "We need tangible evidence
which can stand the test of the court." (More) PTI RHL
