LAHORE, Dec 2: Jamaatud Dawa Amir Hafiz Mohammad Saeed has said that it will be unfortunate if India attacked his organisation’s headquarters in Muridke, as has been indicated in media reports, because the complex housed only educational institutions.

In an interview with a TV channel, he denied that the centre contained any training facility for terrorists or jihadis and said that instead of blaming Pakistan India should focus on investigation of the Mumbai terrorist attacks. He recalled that the involvement of Indian nationals had been proved in various terrorism-related cases being heard in Indian courts.
