Pakistan condemns Delhi bombing |
2011-09-08 |
[Dawn] Pakistain's president and prime minister condemned the deadly kaboom on New Delhi's High Court on Wednesday and said they hoped those responsible would be brought to justice. The powerful bomb, hidden in a briefcase, destroyed a busy crowd outside the court, killing at least 11 people and wounding dozens more. A foreign office statement attributed to President Asif Ali President Ten PercentZardari ... sticky-fingered husband of the late Benazir Bhutto ... and Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani ... Pakistain's erstwhile current prime minister, whose occasional feats of mental gymnastics can be awe-inspiring ... condemned the attack on arch-foe India. "The Pak leadership has expressed their deepest sympathies to the families of the victims of the bombing, to the government and people of India." "They have expressed the hope that the perpetrators of this heinous act will be brought to justice." The device had been placed near an entrance gate reception area, where more than 100 people were queueing for passes to the court complex, located in the heart of the Indian capital. It was the first major attack on Indian soil since triple blasts in Mumbai on July 13 killed 26 people. Relations between nuclear-armed rivals India and Pakistain remain severely strained over the Mumbai assaults in 2008, which left 166 people dead and were blamed on faceless myrmidons based in Pakistain. |

#1 How sweet. Indian police have already detained three, including an internet cafe owner in the Kishtwar region of Kashmir. Apparently it was from there that an email was sent, claiming that Harkat-ul-Jihad Islami, an al-Qaida affiliate with bases in Pakistan and Bangladesh, dunnit. |
