| Pakistan denies allegations over Mumbai attacks |
| 2010-07-21 |
| [Dawn] Foreign Ministry spokesman Abdul Basit dismissed allegations by India on Tuesday, which claimed that Pakistan's establishment and David Headley were involved in the Mumbai attacks. He said that the Indian establishment was giving statements against Pakistan deliberately as part of a well thought out plan. In a notice from the Foreign Office, it was stated that it is essential that propoganda from both the countries should stop and the two nations should focus on the peace process initiated at the SAARC summit in Bhutan. Abdul Basit also said that for peaceful conditions to exist in South Asia, Pakistan and India need to work together and relations between the two must prosper. He said that India's National Security Advisor Shiv Shankar Menon's statement was highly irresponsible and baseless. |
