Pakistan must convict 26/11 attacks plotter Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi and rein in Hafiz Saeed, chief of banned Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and head of Jamatud Dawa (JuD), India’s National Security Adviser AK Doval has said.
In an interview with Hindustan Times, Doval said that steps being taken against the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) in the aftermath of the Peshawar attack must also be taken against the LeT.
“Hafiz Saeed should be restrained from spewing anti-India venom openly,” Doval said. Saeed’s calls for jihad in Kashmir have added to India’s anger after Lakhvi was granted bail, barely two days after TTP militants butchered 132 children in Peshawar.
Following the outrage, Pakistan decided to hold Lakhvi behind bars for three more months. “His detention is positive but not adequate. Ample evidence is available. Pakistan should press charges and convict Lakhvi for Mumbai attacks,” Doval said.
India has been closely monitoring counter-terror measures being taken in Pakistan in the aftermath of the carnage in Peshawar. A day after the attack, Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif vowed to intensify the war on terror.
“All restrictions being put on terror groups like the Taliban should also apply to the LeT,” said Doval.
According to an official in the Ministry of External Affairs, India is “deeply concerned about how the Pakistani state deals with the Lashkar which is used against us”.
Could we kindly ask you to reign in RAW. Their involvment in the internal subversion of our country is welknown.
Look the way he is ordering "Pakistan must …". Keep your orders within your country boundaries.
Can I ask why is UN resolution for Kashmir can implemented even after 65 years. Go and find out about that and fix that. You are in no position to say if you have any shame.
Actually, you must implement UN resolution about Kashmir.
befair – go ahead, and vacate the ilegally occupied Kashmir(POK). show Pakistan's resolve to impiment the first condition of the UN resolutions.
Also make sure, that the part you have criminally handed over to China is returned.
Once this done India can send its troops to first verify that this has been done, and thereafter get the stage going.
Shimla agreement, Lahore Declaration, these are issues, too which may need to be visited.
Suddenly, like most ill informed Pakistanis, you will be experiencing a memory lapse!
