Iran has presented evidence to Pakistan that shows there are links between Pakistani intelligence services and the Jundallah militants group, a senior Iranian official has said.
Rigi, whose Sunni Baloch group Jundallah (soldiers of God) is closely linked to Taliban and active in Iran's Sistan-Balochistan province bordering Pakistan, was charged with 79 counts of various crimes.
Pakistan has denied Iranian claims that the government is aware of the fact that Abdolmalek Rigi -- the alleged mastermind of the terror attack in Pishin on Sunday --- is hiding in Balochistan. Rigi is the chief of the underground Sunni outfit group Jundallah which claimed responsibility for the attack in Iran's Sunni-majority Sistan-Baluchistan province. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad too accused Pakistan of having links to the bombers who carried out the attack.
