Pakistani terrorist Ajmal Kasab and his companions were instructed by their Lashkar-e-Tayiba handlers on telephone to hold as many hostages as possible during the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks to demand from the Indian government the creation of a "separate state for Muslims".
India is 'very cautiously and responsibly' evaluating the conflicting signals emanating from Pakistan on punishing the perpetrators of the Mumbai terror attacks and is waiting for its 'visible and credible' actions against them. Voicing his disapproval over the release of Lashkar-e-Tayiba founder Hafeez Saeed, External Affairs Minister S M Krishna on Sunday said India has not yet received any official communication about Pakistan government's appeal.
Two Lashkar-e-Tayiba militants were on Thursday killed in an encounter with security forces in the border district of Poonch in Jammu and Kashmir.
Hyderabad has surpassed Azamgarh in Uttar Pradesh and Kerala as a breeding ground for Indian terrorists.
