Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan, in an interview with an English daily on Thursday, acknowledged that the 2008 Mumbai terror attack was perpetrated by Pakistani terror group Lashkar-e-Taiba.

Speaking on the Mumbai terror attacks, Pakistan PM said, “We also want something done about the bombers of Mumbai. I have asked our government to find out the status of the case. Resolving that case is in our interest because it was an act of terrorism."

On the 10th anniversary of the dreadful 26/11 Mumbai terrorist attack, the Government of India released a statement in which it had given a stern warning to Pakistan to "give up double standards and to expeditiously bring the perpetrators of the horrific attack to justice".

Imran Khan's response has come in the light of the question of the release Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi, who is a leader of the terror group Lashkar-e-Taiba on bail in Pakistan while a nine-year trial has dragged on for six other suspects, with no results.

As many as 10 LeT terrorists came into India through the sea and terrorised the city of Mumbai on November 26, 2008. An attack which lasted for a period of days, the terrorists bombarded and fired on a number of important places in the city, including the Taj Hotel. A total of 166 people were killed and over 300 were injured in the ghastly act of terror. Of the 10 attackers, nine were killed, while the only survivor, Ajmal Kasab, was hanged to death for his activities.

Furthermore, on being questioned about India dismissing his gestures towards the country after coming to power, Imran Khan targeted the ruling government, calling it 'anti-BJP and anti-Pakistan.'

"India has elections coming up. The ruling party has an anti-Muslim, anti-Pakistan approach. They rebuffed all my overtures. Let’s hope that after the election is over, we can again resume talks with India," Pakistan PM said to the English Daily.

“I have opened a visa-free peace corridor with India called Kartarpur (so that Indian Sikhs can visit a shrine in Pakistan),” he said, referring to the recent groundbreaking ceremony of Kartarpur corridor in Pakistan.

Ok so an attack on innocent civilians was an act of terrorism. Breaking News?
 
Was there ever a doubt about this not being a terrorist attack with origins in Pakistan ?

There seems to be some doubt about the origins in Pakistan, this is the issue which is still to be resolved. Pakistanis won't of course accept Indian propaganda without rock solid proof.

I see , not surprising .Do you think this terrorist act took place or is it too Indian propaganda ?
 
I don't think the OP or our Indians friends here understand English. He isn't "admitting" that Pakistan was behind those attacks, he just called the Mumbai attacks an act of terrorism.

Innocent people died, so obviously Terrorist act took place.

It is just hard to believe anything coming out of India as evidence.

Yea, even more difficult to believe when the Govt. of Pakistan itself admitted that the attacks were launched from Pakistan. But then again, every thing is a conspiracy against Pakistan. If the Govt. of Pakistan admits it, they are traitors who are conspiring against Pakistan. If the rest of the world admits it, they are conspiring against Pakistan.

I guess Pakistan has never harbored or nurtured anyone who has shown traits of terrorism . Do you recall few outfits based in Pakistan called Lashkar-e-Taiba or say Harkat-ul-Mujahideen ?
 
All IK said was it was an act or terrorism which is was. Indians as usual come up with 2 + 2 = 22! Post 12 is exactly what I am saying as well. Indians still have to tell us why was supposed Pakistani Muslim Ajmal pleading to "bhagwan" and the murder of Hemant Karkare?

Are you ranting or asking a question?

A neutral position would be to acknowledge that all claims could be possible, the only way to reach a conclusion is with rock solid proof.

if you believe Kasab was a Indian you surely must be living in Jurassic Park :facepalm:

Pakistan has when they needed, just like many other countries when they needed and will continue to use non-state forces when they needed.

It is a common practice in modern world to destabilize democracy and get your way.

When I say many countries, it includes India, too.

Now you will come back with, Pakistan did it first. lol

Since you are a neutral from UK , what is your opinion about another neutral Country like USA having some opinions on this terror attack in specific & Pakistan's support to terrorism in general ?

i thought we were discussing 26/11 ?

That too after the a Pak channel tracked down Kasab's village and spoke to his father on camera :))

But then again, those media channels are under the payroll of India. You see, it's all a conspiracy against Pakistan. Not to mention that RAW consists of such bona fide fools, they would deliberately release a fake video of Kasab speaking of Bhagwaan :))

Millions of people believe in what I said. Jurassic Park is much better then most of India:jimmy No 300 million people living below the poverty line here. I see you are unable to answer my questions.

Have you not seen the many video's shown by Indian media of Pak terrorists in Mumbai or Delhi when they were sitting in Karachi or Lahore:moyo2

Such a cute reply. Except that one of the biggest media channels of your country tracked down Kasab's village and spoke to the villagers and his own father, and all of them spoke in details about Kasab.

Another conspiracy in the books?

I replied to your above comment.

Post 9/11, your enemy is a terrorist, and your terrorist is a freedom fighter.

People of India need to understand one simple aspect of moving forward with peace.

It can't be conditional.

It can only be resolved with dialogue.

Only country, well political party and religious party, gain the most from cold relationship between Pak and India is BJP and RSS.

Given current situation in India, BJP, RSS and Army (which is heavily influence by RSS and BJP) can't afford to start peace talk with Pakistan.

I did see that & yes a Pakistani Minister did admit about this though i cannot recall his name or ministry . Living in denial is injurious to the health of the Nation .

Opinions are ten a penny, also they are subject to the interests of the country or party which espouses them. The only true criteria has to be evidence. Rock. Solid. Evidence.
 

FOX news , Bush, Blair claimed with falsified evidence that Iraq had weapon of mass destruction.

And India is master of fakery when it comes to provide evidence against Pakistan.

Pigeon, Surgical Strike, etc.

You can do better unless you are trolling.

So you say 26/11 was to free J & K ? How was attacking a Cosmopolitan signature blow towards freedom struggle ?

Which India has never provided. But what do you expect from a nation of 1.2 billion who would believe that Pakistani were spying on them using a pigeon.

When did I say that?

If you are going to respond to my comment please respond to what I have written instead of diverting the discussion. And if you can't respond to my queries and comments then you can ignore it.

sure i will ignore your post about your terrorist / my freedom fighter AND peace can only be purchased with dialogue . I wonder dialogue about what ? Remember we are talking 26/11 .

Who is trolling here? I just posted a video that confirms your own country admitting that Kasab was a Pakistani. It's you who is cooking conspiracy theories.

Such a good excuse. The weapons of mass destruction in Iraq justifies that everything since then is a conspiracy against Pakistan. It doesn't matter even if Pakistan itself admits to the facts.
 
Dialogue? My foot! Even after Kargil War, Parliament attacks in India, Mumbai attacks, Uri attacks? The option of dialogue should have been shut down immediately after what Pakistan did in 1999 which we know as the Kargil War. Can any country be more 2 faced? They invited our then PM as a token of peace, and immediately behind his back launched a war. And then outright lie through their teeth claiming their soldiers to be freedom fighters from Kashmir. And then finally honor their deceased soldiers (RIP!) with national honors.

Or is there some conspiracy involved there as well?

Let me assure you, India will come back to dialogue without any pre-conditions.

For now you can "my foot' or "my hand" but we all know India will come back without any pre-conditions.

Yea, India has been asking for dialogue till date and Pakistan has been refusing, right?

BTW, can you refute any single point I made in my previous post?

Not an excuse. Just an example that government lies.

India has not provided hard solid evidence.

If you have it other than someone saying without any solid evidence then go ahead.

Remember US and UK provided in UN live on TV.

So Pakistan wanting to have peace talks and India refusing them lately is not a fact, rather an emotional outburst from me?

Munizey Jhangir, the daughter of Asma Jahangir. Why am I not surprised ?:facepalm: These traitors(specially the ones in Geo) should be behind bars. But again, we have a history of being too soft and lazy when it comes to dealing with ghaddar-e-watan.

So without providing any hard, solid evidence, your own Govt. admitted to the Mumbai attacks being launched from Pakistan?

Can you provide official document where Pakistan has admitted?

It is my assumption.

No where in the comment I have said it was based on facts and history.

Like I have said, you aren't providing any evidence, just emotional outbursts.

Official document? Any more specific demands?

Anyways, one can wake up a person asleep, but one cannot wake up a person pretending to sleep.

Next conspiracy please?

It was planned by different organization.

Can you please provide evidence that Pakistani officials were involved?
 
In another thread, Indians were saying that they don't care about Imran Khan and what he has to say. I thought, fair enough, a country ruled by the charismatic Modi 'ji' isn't bothered by a lowly Khan :afridi. But I am shocked to see so many responses from our neighbours in this thread on Imran Khan's supposed 'admission'.

When exactly did I ever claim that? The point was that the attacks were carried out from Pakistan.

Nothing cute about it other then your inability to reply to what I said. Just coz some Pak media person apparently tracked down Ajmal's home does not make it a FACT. Many Indians have also said that Ajmal was not a Pakistani as well.
 
Absolutely, Mumbai incident was terrorism. Killing and torturing innocent people, non combatants is very much terrorism. Nevertheless, many Indians were involved in that too, and Ajmal Kasab was himself most probably an Indian.

Nevertheless, we should prosecute any one against whom there is some evidence of being complicit in that act.
 
you should sometimes read what is written in those links that you try to use as facts to back your position.

From the third to sixth line it states very clearly that Ajmal is an Indian. Now you will say we were also hearing things when he was calling out to "Bhagwan".

So Kasab's father and his fellow villagers speaking about him on camera and admitting everything, was a work of fiction? :))

The farther we stay away from Pakistan the better. Terror attacks all over India has come down drastically since relations with Pakistan were downgraded.
 
So Kasab's father and his fellow villagers speaking about him on camera and admitting everything, was a work of fiction? :))

I mean they could have been paid to say it. Poor people can easily be persuaded with some money or they could have mistaken him for someone else. Many people appear very similar. How do you know that man was his supposed father? In India we are talking about a country that reports Pak terrorists being in Delhi when they are in Lahore. This has happened a few times now:facepalm:.
 
Nothing is gonna happen about 26/11 and Indian people know it. The world never cared much about it as compared to 9/11, India has to get over it as well. If India does not do anything to stop the terrorism it exports to other neighbouring countries then their grievances will too remain unanswered. Stop sending terrorists and trouble makers like Sarbjit, Kulbushan and even Hamid Ansari's to us. We can only pray for the departed souls.
 
I have read it enough times. Ajmal was from UP no doubt about it.

The full article is below .. see the RED stuff and tell us what you make out of it in your own words.

Pakistani terrorist organization Lashkar-e-Taiba’s terrorist
Ajmal Kasab’s topic is in discussion once again, who had attacked on
Mumbai on November 26, 2008, in Mumbai. Now, the Domicile certificate of
Ajmal Kasab’s name has issued, which shows he was the resident of
Auraiya district of Uttar Pradesh (UP). It shocked not only to the UP
people, but the whole country.In fact, officials of
the Bidhuna Tehsil have done a gross negligence of issuing residence
certificates along with photograph of Ajmal Kasab. In 2008, Ajmal Kasab
was the only terrorist who was caught alive. He was hanged in November
2012 after the Supreme Court’s decision. Officers
of Bidhuna Tehsil issued residence certificates of the terrorist Ajmal
Kasab while showing a very carelessness. On October 21, an unknown
person had applied for this certificate by submitting fake documents
along with real photos of Ajmal Kasab. After which, the Sub-Divisional
Officer (SDM) issued the residence certificate without any
cross-checking of documents
.In the application, Kasab’s father
was named Mohammad Aamir and mother’s name Mumtaz Begum. With the
seriousness of the matter, the SDM has ordered the immediate
cancellation of the certificate, and suspended to the lekhpal (revenue
officer).SDM Bidhuna Pravendra Kumar investigated
the whole matter, in which the facts given in the application proved to
wrong and he ordered the cancellation of the certificate immediately
.
What SDM have to say…Prendra
Kumar said that the case was immediately investigated while taking
seriousness of the matter, and after investigation, no person of this
name was found at the above address. A letter has been written to the
NIC to cancel the certificate
 
The full article is below .. see the RED stuff and tell us what you make out of it in your own words.

I read it. India see's everything as being fake for sure unless it suits it's own agenda! So I wouldn't expect that person to be found there!! What's the matter with you?

Didn't they also have recording of the mastermind giving directions as the event unfolded on that horrific day? But yeah every Pakistani deep down knows that their country was involved but good luck getting a admission.
 
So you don't believe in whats written in your own links that you posted ? :))

I do for sure. You seem to be ignoring that he was from UP, why's that? You showed me that the article says Ajmal was not from there, right? The point here is that many still believe that he was from the UP otherwise the question would not have been raised in the first place. Your laughing emoticons can not undo that.
 
Yea, I've posted various links regarding that news.

Yet you will have pakistanis saying 26/11 was a consipracy,a false flag and Kasab was not a pakistani. I am glad we are staying away from any talks with Pakistan.

If you read that article the minister says it was partly planned in Pakistan. That means it was also partly planned somewhere else, we can all guess where that might be, and interestingly, the minister says that to make charges stick against the culprits suspected, Pakistan needed more help from India. Why didn't they provide it?

"LINKS TO EUROPE AND U.S.

One of those arrested, identified as Javed Iqbal, was lured back to Pakistan from the Spanish city of Barcelona, Malik said.

Investigators had also discovered some funds transferred from Italy and Spain were used to finance the attack, and Austrian telephone sim cards were used. Malik spoke too of a link, possibly an Internet domain, to Houston in the United States.


Malik said investigators had been unable to confirm the identities of the nine gunmen killed in the attack, though Pakistan has confirmed Mohammad Ajmal Kasab, the gunman caught alive, was a Pakistani."

From the same Reuters link.

Pakistanis outside Pakistan were involved as well. So we know who were involved in the part planned outside Pakistan

Malik confirmed Kasab was a Pakistani.

Surprisingly the evidence provided by India was sufficient for UN and most countries to ban LeT and Hafuz Saeed and co.

Then again in Pakistan, judge who sentenced Mumtaz Qadri had to run away to Dubai. Lawyer who defended Asia Bibi had to run away, who will go againist Hafiz Saeed and his backers.

Wonder why military courts which otherwise rule on terrorist acts and terrorists in Pakistan were not involved here.
