Hafiz Saeed denies role in Mumbai attacks

Lashkar-e-Tayyaba leader Hafiz Muhammad Saeed has said he cannot be extradited since he has never been convicted either in India or Pakistan. Saeed, whose name figures in the list of 20 fugitives wanted by India from Pakistan after the Mumbai attacks, termed the demand for his head a ‘crude attempt’ to divert attention of the people from the failures of Indian intelligence and security agencies.
In an interview with Indian Outlook magazine to hit the stands on Saturday (tomorrow), Saeed said: “I have never been convicted either in India or in Pakistan on any charge. On the other hand, a criminal case is still pending against BJP leader LK Advani for masterminding Muhammad Ali Jinnah’s murder.”
