`Marking` on arms seized from tribal belt points to India: Pak

Islamabad, Sept 27 (PTI) President Asif Ali Zardari
has claimed that the "marking" on weapons and cash recovered
from Pakistan's restive tribal belt has raised questions about
"Indian involvement" in the region, according to a media
report.

Zardari made the remarks during a meeting with US
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in New York, The News daily
reported Sunday.

"Pakistan believes that the only way to achieve
durable and long-lasting peace between the two countries was
through dialogue but it was very important to look into what
was happening on the ground," the President was quoted as
saying.

"If the flow of cash and weapons continues to
terrorists, it would be difficult to achieve peace," Zardari
said.

Diplomatic sources told the newspaper that Zardari
said Pakistan is committed to not allowing any group to use
its territory for terrorist activities. It is the requirement
of all stakeholders not to engage in a blame game and to "do
what was required" of them, he added.

The Pakistani media has carried numerous reports in
the recent past in which unnamed officials were quoted as
saying that India was involved in fomenting unrest in
Pakistan’s tribal areas bordering Afghanistan. New Delhi has
refuted Islamabad's charges. PTI
