Mumbai 'not planned in Pakistan'
A top Pakistani diplomat has said its investigations into the attacks on Mumbai show they were not planned in either Pakistan or the UK.
Pakistan's high commissioner in Britain, Wajid Shamsul Hasan, told Indian media Islamabad's own report on the attacks would be released soon.
More than 170 people were killed when 10 gunmen attacked India's financial capital in November.
India says Pakistan-based militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba was to blame.
India has also suggested what it calls "state elements" were involved. Both Pakistan and Lashkar-e-Taiba have denied any involvement.
The attacks have put relations between India and Pakistan under severe strain.
'No whitewash'
Mr Hasan's comments to India's NDTV channel are thought to be the first official words on what the Pakistani document might contain.
He said: "Pakistani territory was not used so far as the investigators have made their conclusions. It could have been some other place. Not the UK as well. Because these were the two places I was concerned about."
When you collect material, then you sort it out, you re-do it and re-read it. That requires time
Wajid Shamsul Hasan
India and the international community have put huge pressure on Pakistan to take action against militants based on its soil and to bring the perpetrators of the Mumbai attacks to justice.
Pakistan says that it has arrested dozens of people in a crackdown on groups allegedly linked to Mumbai. It says it has also shut a number of operations run by a charity linked to Lashkar-e-Taiba.
Mr Hasan added: "We are not going to do any whitewashing business. We believe in going after facts. Our findings will be acceptable to the world. We will try to satisfy India with our findings. We are addressing the concerns of the world not just India."
He also defended the time it had taken for the report to come out
"When you collect material, then you sort it out, you re-do it and re-read it. That requires time, so I am sure once they complete it, they will come out with concrete facts that will satisfy the world as to Pakistan's non-involvement in the Mumbai attacks."
Mr Hasan also criticised India's delay in handing over evidence, suggesting its dossier could be "fabricated".
"You [India] took 45 days to come up with a sort of evidence although you started blaming Pakistan on the first day".
The evidence India is said to have handed over includes the interrogation of the surviving gunman, Mohammed Ajmal Amir Qasab , details of phone conversations between the attackers and weapons information.
India says all 10 gunmen were from Lashkar-e-Taiba.
Pakistan has admitted Qasab is a Pakistani citizen.

only one execution personnel is alive, which is in India's custody. Rest were outside of Pakistan. This officially makes it no longer our business.

Does it prove that elements inside Pakistan were involved. Do you think planners are so stupid to leave everything open and obvious to investigate. Wow it means that whoever planned this sophisticated mission made a major blunder by leaving everything behind.
Usual BS from the Indian media and a crying Indian...tears coming out of the A$$.

NO !!!!
One of the calls from the satphone was intercepted and in that the caller has clearly said that
"Hamse ek galti ho gayi... Ismail GPS aur Satellite Phone ko tabah karna bhool gaye"
This was also intercepted... now tell me...
It was clearly sloppy work by the ill-brained terrorists.... they had to destroy everything... they forgot to do that... and the entire plot unravelled when Ajmal was caught alive...

No need to hide behind flag after the stroke of patriotism..Does it prove that elements inside Pakistan were involved. Do you think planners are so stupid to leave everything open and obvious to investigate. Wow it means that whoever planned this sophisticated mission made a major blunder by leaving everything behind.

Why you are pressuming that terrorists are very intelligent people..Do you know them..Luckily there are enough of evidences.So first thing is to examine whether they are valied or not..So far through kasab whatever coming out is proven to be truth..
Tears will come from a$$ if terrorists sparred from their gruesome act..then you wont get sympathy from anybody if same terrorists blow some in your capital...

See you can only wake up guys who are sleeping...
It is not possible to wake up guys who act as if they are sleeping.
No one is expecting much from your side from non state actors you have moved to outside state. Wait till these guys also become a pain like Taliban then you will blame your authorities like you do today on account of Taliban. Some people learn fast from past mistakes some take lot of time unfortunately you fall in the latter category.

Your reply is not surprising.
However, if Pak nationals who live in Pak are involved ( as reluctantly admitted by the Pak PM ) whose business would it be .. Iceland ?

there you go! back to square one. I guess, pranab has to get talking again and hillary clinton should do some 'condi rice', then when the arm is twisted enough, pak might accept the truth.
Parnab has many gears in his tongue. One day he says something and the very next he backs off. So who can believe paranoid Parnab.
