India on Monday used the death of Osama bin Laden to denounce Pakistan as a terrorist “sanctuary”, as it renewed calls for Islamabad to arrest suspects behind the 2008 Mumbai attacks. Indian Home Minister P Chidambaram said India noted with “grave concern” that bin Laden had been found hiding in a palatial villa less than two hours’ drive from Islamabad.
“This fact underlines our concern that terrorists belonging to different organisations find sanctuary in Pakistan,” Chidambaram said.“We once again call upon Pakistan to arrest the persons whose names have been handed over,” he said.
