India to share Samjhauta blast evidence with Pakistan

NEW DELHI: Indian Home Minister P. Chidambaram said on Sunday that “some evidence” has emerged in the 2007 Samjhauta blast case and India will share information with Pakistan once the probe is over.

According to Indian media, Chidambaram said that India had never said that it would not share information with Pakistan.

“We have not said that we will not provide evidence. These are early phases of investigation...once the investigation is complete we will share the evidence with Pakistani authorities,” he said.

Chidambaram said that he had conveyed India’s position to his Pakistani counterpart Rehman Malik.

The minister said that India did not have any indication earlier as to who may have been behind the attack, however, now some evidence had emerged which pointed towards a few suspects.

He also said that a right-wing group member Swami Aseemanand had already confessed his involvement in the Samjhauta case
