Mumbai attacks: India wants to send investigation team to Pakistan

NEW DELHI: India plans on sending an investigation team to Pakistan to examine evidence related to the Mumbai attacks, IBN Live reported on Wednesday.

According to sources quoted in the report, the Indian home secretary has asked the Indian foreign secretary to inform Pakistan about the proposal to send its investigators.

The investigation team aims to inspect the evidence collected by the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), including items seized from Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) training camps where 10 Mumbai attackers were allegedly trained, the news website reported.

The Indian team will also try to examine Pakistani ship al Hussaini, which was allegedly used by the terrorists to reach India. Examination, however, can only be carried out if Pakistan provides access to the ship.

Ajmal Kasab

On August 20, India’s Supreme Court confirmed the death sentence handed down to Mohammed Kasab, the lone surviving gunman from the 2008 Mumbai attacks in which 166 people were killed.

He was found guilty of charges including waging war against India, murder and terrorist acts, and was given the death penalty in May 2010. He later applied for clemency from the Indian president in a final bid to avoid the gallows.

Asad | 12 years ago | Reply Pakistan should treat this Indian Investigation team in the same manner that they treated the Pakistani Judial team. My advice is " Kick them out". Is this a Joke or what? Kasab who is the only survivor and Pakistani Judicial commission was Not allowed to interview him or even record the accounts of eye witnesses in India. Keep in mind that The so called" Real terrorist" is in Indian custody and Pakistani Judicial team could not meet him. What Indian investigators will do here when the real terrorist is in their custody. If they have any evidence , they should provide it to Pakistani Courts and that's all. Hindu State should not be allowed in Pakistan .Period.

I thought India already had investigated and had SOLID evidence against Hafiz Saeed et al. What are these investigations for? Normally investigations are done before nominating the suspects, not after. Who doesn't India give the SOLID evidence against Hafiz Saeed to US and take the 10 million dollar bounty. With 10 million dollars India can make some toilets for its people.
