Pakistan to try the Mumbai Terror Suspects

Finally, Pakistan is trying to do something to shrug off the tag of abetting crime at Indian soil. Pakistan says the trial of five men suspected of involvement in the attack on the Taj Hotel in Mumbai last November is likely to start next week. The minister said investigations were complete for these suspects and named another 12 men still wanted in connection with the case. The charges show Pakistan is serious in pursuing suspects in the case despite Indian claims to the contrary, he said.

More than 170 people died in the attacks, including nine gunmen. India has accused Pakistan-based fighters from the banned militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba of carrying out the attacks. Pakistan has admitted they were partly planned on its soil and the two countries have suffered seriously strained relations. India has claimed that they have evidence that all the things have been planned by the ISI, Pakistan.
