India has not provided evidence on Mumbai attacks, just info: Gilani

ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani on Tuesday giving a policy statement in the National Assembly said that India has not given any evidence on Mumbai attacks but just information. “All that has been received from India is some information. I say information because these are not evidence.”

He said the information, received on January 5, needs to be carefully examined which has been sent to the Ministry of Interior for necessary inquiry in accordance with the law.

The results of the inquiry, the Prime Minister added, will be shared with the government of India in due course of time.

“We are prepared to cooperate with India to uncover full facts and hence offered to India for joint inquiry.”

India has, however, not responded to Pakistan’s proposals and hoped they will see merit in it and accept joint inquiry, he added.

“Serious sustained and pragmatic cooperation is the way forward.”

The Prime Minister reiterated that the country condemns terrorism in all its forms and manifestations and said Pakistan was among the first to condemn Mumbai terror attacks.
