Hafiz Saeed
Pakistani authorities have decided not to arrest Jamaat-ud-Dawah chief and 26/11 mastermind Hafiz Saeed on the basis of new dossiers from India claiming that they do not contain "actionable intelligence", according to a media report here today.
Notwithstanding the recent Indo-Pak Foreign Secretary-level meeting for which India took initiative, JuD chief Hafiz Mohd Saeed has said Pakistan will have to "fight a war at all costs" if New Delhi is not prepared to hold talks.
In a retort to Pakistan's contention that it was "not desperate" for dialogue, India tonight said neither was it desperate for talks and indicated unhappiness over the attempts at "point-scoring" by Pakistan.
India on Thursday said it would have to conclude that Pakistan is dragging its feet on bringing terror accused in Mumbai attacks to justice if it does not put on trial people including Hafiz Saeed, founder of terror group Lashker-e-Taiba.- A Pakistani court on Monday ordered quashing of two cases under an anti-terrorism law against JuD chief Hafiz Mohd Saeed, blamed by India for masterminding 26/11 attacks, saying he could not be charged under the act as his outfit was not banned in the country.
