India Demands Transfer of Terrorists from Pakistan
by John Little on 2/12/2008India is going to leverage the fallout from the attacks to their advantage – as they should:
India is renewing its demands that Pakistan hand over a group of wanted militant leaders suspected of plotting the attacks in Mumbai that killed nearly 180 people.
Indian officials have delivered a list of suspected terrorists and asked Pakistan to hand them over, two sources within the Pakistani government confirmed to CNN on Tuesday.
India’s External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee said his country made the request to Pakistan’s top diplomat in India, according to the Press Trust of India.
“We will await the response of Pakistan,” he told reporters Tuesday.
Pakistani prime minister Yousuf Raza Gilani is requesting more evidence from India before any transfer takes place. It’s an effort to buy time more than anything else.
