Pak should go after Saeed: US envoy

New Delhi, Sept 18 (PTI Piling up pressure on Pakistan,
the United States Friday said it was important that "swift and
lengthy" punishment should be slapped on six Mumbai terror
attack suspects, including Lashker-e-Taiba (LeT) founder Hafiz
Saeed, in that country.

"Swift and lengthy punishment for six suspects of Mumbai
attacks in Pakistan is important for the US and India," US
Ambassador Timothy J Roemer told reporters after meeting
Indian Home Minister P Chidambaram here.

The US envoy's comments came ahead of the meeting of
Foreign Ministers of India and Pakistan in New York on the
margins of the UN General Assembly session.

The Ambassador said it was important for the US and
India that action is taken against the LeT founder and terror
infrastructure in Pakistan is dismantled.

""Going after Hafiz Saeed and dismantling terror
infrastructure in that region is extremely important for both
US and India," he said. (More) PTI
