Krishna to Pakistan: Shun go -slow policy against 26/11 perpetrators
August 26th, 2009 - 6:09 pm ICT by ANINew Delhi, Aug 26 (ANI): External Affairs Minister S. M. Krishna on Wednesday criticised Pakistan’s go-slow policy on 26/11 perpetrators and asked Islamabad to immediately act against Lashkar-e- Taiba founder Hafiz Saeed.
On Tuesday Interpol issued a Red Corner Notice against Saeed, and Zaki -ur- Rehman Lakhvi who are considered the masterminds of 26/11.
The notice was issued after a Mumbai court issued non-bailable warrants against both terrorists.
Speaking to newsmen here Krishna said, “Interpol’s Red Corner Notice on Saeed is the vindication of what India says. The perpetrators of Mumbai attack will have to be brought to be justice. We have painstakingly collected evidence to convey the involvement of the persons.”
He termed Pakistan’s rejection of India’s fifth dossier as unfortunate.
“It is very unfortunate that the Pakistan has rejected the dossier, but at the same time Interpol has given a Red Corner notice. I think the world should take note of these developments and come to their own conclusion,” Krishna said.
Pakistan’s Interior Minister Rehman Malik said on Tuesday that if India does not provide tangible information on the 26/11 attacks and the Samjhauta Express tragedy, Islamabad would not be responsible for any future terrorist attacks in India.
Krishna, however, added that India would continue to impress on Pakistan to act on terrorist organizations.
India had also sent proof and request for issuing Red Corner notice against Lashkar commander Zarar Shah and Abu Al Qama. Interpol said that it was analyzing the evidence against them. (ANI)
