Latest Indian dossier on 26/11 'rehash' of previous info: Pak
Rezaul H Laskar
Islamabad, Sep 3 (PTI) Pakistan Thursday described the
latest dossier provided by India on the Mumbai attacks as a
"rehash of information" contained in previous documents,
indicating that it is inadequate for taking action against LeT
founder Hafiz Mohammad Saeed.
"The last dossier from India was a rehash of information
received in previous dossiers," Foreign Office spokesman Abdul
Basit told a weekly news briefing.
Basit was responding to a question about India linking
the resumption of peace talks to Pakistan taking action
against the perpetrators of the Mumbai attacks, including
Saeed. New Delhi has accused Saeed of playing a key role in
planning and facilitating the attacks.
The spokesman did not say how Pakistan intended to deal
with Saeed, for whom Interpol recently issued a Red Corner
Notice.
The trial of suspects arrested by Pakistani authorities
in connection with the Mumbai attacks is proceeding and
Islamabad is "serious about bringing the perpetrators to
book," Basit said.
At the same time, he said, Pakistan "still believes
that the composite dialogue is the only way forward." He also
made it clear that if the stalled dialogue were to be resumed,
"it would not be a favour to Pakistan because talks and
exchange of views is the only way" to improve ties between the
two sides. (More) PTI
