Indian Home Minister P. Chidambaram called on Pakistan on Friday to acknowledge that an arrested suspect in the 2008 Mumbai attacks had helped coordinate the assault from a command post in Karachi. Sayed Zabiuddin, an Indian-born member of the banned militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba, was detained at Delhi international airport on June 21 when he arrived from the Middle East. Indian police say Zabiuddin, who also goes under the names Abu Hamza and Abu Jundal, has confessed to being a key handler for the 10 militants who attacked India’s financial capital in 2008, killing 166 people. Zabiuddin “had found a very safe haven in Pakistan,” Chidambaram told reporters.
“Pakistan should admit that (he) did go to Pakistan, that he was part of the group which prepared Kasab and nine others, that (he) was in the control room among one of the handlers and masterminds of the attack. “Just as we admit facts, Pakistan should also admit facts,” the minister said. Pakistan has asked India to share information on Zabiuddin and urged New Delhi to refrain from blaming Islamabad. “India should supply details… enabling us to take action,” Pakistan’s advisor on interior affairs, Rehman Malik, said Wednesday. “Let us end the blame game… We have to fight terrorism together,” Malik added. Pakistan has indicted seven people for their alleged role in the Mumbai attacks but their trial, which began in 2009, has been beset by delays.

  1. Pakistani Civil and military establishment has to reshape it’s friendly policy with India, whenever Indians have a chance they’ll hit us hard, now just with USA Defense Sectary Visit, Indians changes their tune again
    Pakistan must Do the following and see the results:

    Let’s talk only on terrorism no other CBM’s and Import Export business
    Close wagaha boarder at Lahore and Karachi port for any Indian goods import to Pakistan or Afghanistan and central Asia, and same thing with Afghan boarder no any goods will be allowed to shipped to India via Pakistan. No Air space access to Indian Airline to Middle east, central Asia and Europe and USA until we come for settlement. ,

  2. Wake up, guys. Pakistan does not have anything or sells anything that India or the West wants. Why does Pakistan only fight battles it will only lose? The Indians are going to milk the Jundal thing for weeks. Everyday will be another new embarrassing revelation for Pakistan and its reputation as a terror factory will get stronger. Best strategy is fro Pakistan to cut its losses, own up to state involvement in 26/11, prosecute the organizers and move on. The truth will always come out. Good to face it now rather than lose even more credibility later. Will be short-term pain for long term gain but nobody seems to think long term in Pakistan. Rehman Malik is too weird and bizarre to deal with this matter intelligently. Every passing day Pakistan is looking worse and worse with the rumours coming out of India which may or maay be true but nobody believes Pakistan. Time to cut losses.

  3. India is the sworn enemy of pakistan. India is like a snake. No matter how nice Pakistan tries to be, India will always spew poison at Pakistan. They are full of hatred. Even in India, Muslims are treated like animals. India is involved in destroying the law and order situation in Karachi and Balochistan.
    India cannot take care of its own problems. There are independence movements several Indian states. Let's hope the Chinese get the Arunachal and Kashmir gains independence from the clutches of Hindu dominated India.

    • Absolute hatred and religious bigotry is what is in your message. What is wrong if Indian govt pushes for mass murderer's prosecution. YOur own country cannot and will not arrest, prosecute or charge sheet any of the murderers in Pakistan, be it Indian or pakistanis the victims. The least it can do is cooperate with India to bring the perpetrators to book. And the least people like u can do is press your govt instead of spitting lies and poison.
      Regarding the treatment of Muslims in India, I suggest u read the article on Dr Kalam in ET and the comments. May shed some light on your ignorance

  4. India will press Pakistan if some Hindu farts. They will blame Pakistan for destroying India through farts.
