Benazir Bhutto killers in Pakistan: Richard Holbrooke

The people who planned 9/11, who killed Benazir Bhutto and who committed the atrocities in Mumbai are in Pakistan, said Richard Holbrooke, the US special representative to Afghanistan and Pakistan. Speaking at the Brussels Forum, Holbrooke said these people are terrorising Swat and probably were associated with the attack on the Sri Lankan cricket team in Lahore. The Brussels Forum is an annual high-level meeting of the most influential political, corporate, and intellectual leaders worldwide to address pressing challenges facing both sides of the Atlantic. "They're in Pakistan. In the western tribal areas, although it also extends down into Baluchistan," Holbrooke said. He said India is "not part of the problem but they're certainly a major factor in resolving" the situation in Afghanistan. He said India is a great regional power and so we consult India closely every step of the way.
