Clinton’s statement in India against Hafiz Saeed prompted Munter to quit
ISLAMABAD, May 09 (INP): American Ambassador in Pakistan, Cameron Munter suddenly decided to quit his job after Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton during her India visit declared Jamaat-ud-Dawa chief Hafiz Saeed responsible for the 26/11 Mumbai carnage and said the US was prepared to work with India to bring Hafiz Saeed to justice.
Well placed diplomatic sources told INP on Wednesday that after the announcement of $10 million bounty on Hafiz Saeed by the US government,
some circles arranged a secret meeting between Hafiz Saeed and Cameron Munter. According to sources, Hafiz Saeed presented solid evidence to Munter to show that he had no link to the Mumbai carnage.
The sources further divulged that Munter sent a detailed report to the State Department in this regard and informed it about the detailed viewpoint of Hafiz Saeed about the Mumbai attacks. However, the State Department made it clear upon Munter that it would not be responsible for any assurance given by him to the JuD chief.
According to sources,
Hafiz Saeed came out openly in the public openly only after the assurances given by Munter. The sources said Munter had made up his mind to quit his job soon after the State Department refused to be responsible for any promise made by him with Hafiz Saeed. However, the sources added, Munter wasted no time and immediately informed the State Department about his decision to quit after Secretary of State,
Hillary Clinton during her India visit declared Hafiz Saeed responsible for the 26/11 carnage and said the US was prepared to work with India to bring the JuD chief to justice. Clinton’s announcement was aimed to appease India to make it accept its demand to discard Iranian oil imports.
