Mumbai Attacks: Pakistan needs 'credible evidence', says Rehman Malik
Interior Minister says Pakistan released Hafiz Saeed because Indian evidence was "vague, insufficient".
ISLAMABAD:
Pakistan has asked India to provide "credible evidence" against the perpetrators of the Mumbai attacks so that they do not secure release from Pakistan's courts reported Express 24/7 on Friday.
Speaking to Express News at Police Lines Islamabad, Interior Minister Rehman Malik said that Pakistan did take action against Hafiz Saeed and others based on evidence provided by India but the suspects were release because the information was "vague and insufficient".
He added that “Pakistan is ready to take action on information provided by India, which is also compulsory in the court.”
Earlier this month Indian Foreign Secretary Ranjan Mathai had refuted Rehman Malik’s claim about insufficient information, stating that evidence provided by India to Pakistan with regards to those accused in the Mumbai attacks case was sufficient.
