MUMBAI: Indian government has gave clear indication in Mumbai attacks, saying the link tied to Pakistan, though the Pak has denied the charges.
The announcement blaming militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba, threatened to escalate tensions between India and Pakistan. However, Indian officials have been cautious.
According to the reports, published in the newspapers here, the only gunman captured after the 60-hour terrorist siege of Mumbai said he belonged to a Pakistani militant group with links to the disputed Himalayan region of Kashmir.
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh promised to strengthen maritime and air security and look into creating a new federal investigative agency.
A spokesman for Pakistani President Asif Zardari’s spokesman dismissed the claim. “We have demanded evidence of the complicity of any Pakistani group. No evidence has yet been provided,” said spokesman.
