Pakistan is shielding masterminds of 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks: Chidambam

A day after Pakistan admitted the role of the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) terror outfit in the 26/11 Mumbai attacks, Union Home Minister P Chidambaram on Thursday accused Islamabad of protecting the masterminds behind the incident.

Addressing the media, Chidambaram said, “Lakhvi is one of the masterminds. There are others. We know their names and we think Pakistan also knows their names.”

“If they do not bring others to trial then I would have to conclude reluctantly and regrettably that they are still dragging their feet,” he added.

Pakistan had on Wednesday said that there is ‘sufficient incriminating evidence’ against the seven arrested terrorists for their alleged involvement in the Mumbai terror strike.owever, despite India’s demands, no charges were filed against Let chief Hafiz Saeed.
