Pak should not ask any more questions on evidence: Chidambaram

New Delhi, Jul 29 (PTI) Unhappy over Pakistan's repeated
claim about lack of evidence to prosecute Jamaat-ud Dawa
chief Hafiz Saeed, India Wednesday said it should not ask any
more questions as enough proof has been provided in the
dossiers on Mumbai attacks.

"They should not ask any more questions. Everything is
contained in the dossier," India's Home Minister P Chidambaram
told reporters here in the national capital when asked to
comment on Pakistan's claim that it does not have evidence to
prosecute Saeed, whom India has identified as prime accused in
Mumbai attacks.

"It has been a little tiresome," he said while referring
to Pakistan's repeated claim that it does not have proof to
prosecute Saeed and it has been seeking it from India.

Chidambaram said Pakistan has "enough evidence to
prosecute the perpetrators... They should get on with their
job."

Pakistan's Interior Minister Rahman Malik said in an
interview Tuesday, "We do not have any proof against Hafiz
Saeed. We have demanded and we are demanding from India that
if you have proof, give (it to) us, but do not do propaganda."

Contending that Pakistan cannot "arrest our citizen" on
the basis of "hearsay", Malik had said "If New Delhi wants
some credible action, it needs to provide substantial
evidence." PTI
