We have proof of Indian hand in terrorism: Malik
* Interior minister says weapons, terrorists coming from Afghanistan
By Razzak Abro
KARACHI: The government has concrete evidence of India’s involvement in terrorism across the country and the issue will be taken up during a round of talks with New Delhi soon, Interior Minister Rehman Malik said on Monday.
Talking to reporters after meeting clerics in Karachi, Malik said terrorists and weapons were also coming in from Afghanistan, and Pakistan had taken up the issue with Afghan President Hamid Karzai.
He said the government was working on an action plan for effective surveillance of the Pak-Afghan border, adding that in this regard, biometric checkposts would soon be set up at three points along the border.
Malik said Al Qaeda chief Osama Bin Laden was not in Pakistan, and if anyone had any information in this regard, he should share it with Islamabad so that the country could take appropriate action.
To a question, he said the government was taking action against terrorists regardless of their affiliations with a madrassa or any organisation.
The interior minister said religious scholars from all sects had declared suicide attacks against the teachings of Islam, while the government had also sought the views of clerics from around the world on terrorism. He said the government would organise a conference on terrorism where scholars from Muslim countries would be invited to give their views on the issue.
Malik said he would also meet clerics across the country and in this regard, a meeting had been scheduled in Lahore on December 10.
