ISLAMABAD: Pakistan reiterated on Monday that no evidence about involvement of elements from its territory in the Mumbai attacks had been provided, after an Indian diplomat claimed that his government had provided ‘sufficient evidence’.

“The government of Pakistan has so far not received any information or evidence relating to the Mumbai incident from the government of India,” Foreign Office spokesman Mohammad Sadiq said.

Earlier, acting Indian High Commissioner Manpreet Vohra told journalists on the sidelines of a seminar: “There is a lot of evidence with the Pakistani government and other countries on not just the Mumbai incident. Everyone knows and has evidence about the activities of terrorist groups in Pakistan.”

He said action needed to be taken against terrorists and their groups and United Nations’ resolutions should be implemented.

Mr Vohra indicated that before responding to Pakistan’s offer of cooperation in investigation India wanted to see how it complied with a UN Security Council resolution imposing sanctions on Jamaatud Dawah and its four leaders. He said Pakistan had international obligations under the resolution.

The acting Indian High Commissioner rejected a perception that a war between the neighbours was imminent. He said India was committed to resolving all disputes and wished to continue talks for regional peace. “Our leaders have clearly said war is not a solution.”
