“However, India would have to reciprocate our efforts by adopting a positive stance.” India initially provided the confessional statement of Ajmal Amir Kasab, the lone Pakistani terrorist captured during the attacks, in Marathi and this held up the probe, Malik said.

The translated version of the statement was subsequently provided by New Delhi and authorities are examining it. Meanwhile, ‘Dawn´ newspaper quoted its sources in the Interior Ministry as claiming that last year’s Mumbai attacks and the 2007 bombing of the Samjhauta Express train were linked.

This was one of the reasons why Pakistan would send another dossier to India seeking more information about the Mumbai attacks, the sources claimed.
