INDO-PAK 3 LAST

On the presentation of evidence by Pakistan in a court
against seven arrested Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorists in
connection with 26/11, the sources said India welcomes every
step that Pakistan would take in connection with the Mumbai
attacks.
But India would like to see investigations completed and
the trial taken to its logical end.
Pakistan last week presented evidence in court against LeT
commander Zaki-ur Rahman Lakhvi and six others. However,
Jamaat-ud Dawa chief Hafiz Saeed, whom India considers the
"mastermind" of Mumbai attacks, continues to be a free man.
Saeed, in fact, talked about continued jihad against India
at a rally in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir a few days back and
his freedom and provocative statements remain a matter of
concern in India.
"We see people connected with terrorism are freely roaming
in Pakistan. Those are our concerns and we are going to the
talks with all our concerns. We are not leaving them outside
the door and then going....," the sources said.
The government has come under severe criticism for
deciding to resume talks, with India's major opposition party
Bharatiya Janata Party terming it as "abject
surrender".
However, the government maintains that there is no
contradiction in its stand on terrorism and dialogue.
At the same time, the sources said, "We have to wait a
little" before a decision could be reached on resuming the
comprehensive dialogue. PTI
