Indian High Commissioner meets Rehman Malik

Indian High Commissioner to Pakistan Sharat Sabharwal on Saturday met Interior Ministry chief Rehman Malik here in Islamabad and discussed the status of the probe into the Mumbai terror attacks. The Indian envoy, who had sought the meeting with Mr. Malik, was given an update on the Pakistani probe into the 26/11 strikes that killed more than 180 people. The meeting comes in the backdrop of the release of LeT founder and JuD chief Hafeez Mohammed Saeed, suspected to be behind the Mumbai attacks, from detention following a court order. The talks between Malik and Sabharwal comes just three days ahead of a meeting between Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari on the sidelines of BRIC Summit in Russia. Immediately after Saeed was released, India had voiced its disappointment, saying it raises serious doubts over Pakistan's sincerity in acting with determination against terrorist groups and individuals operating from its territory.
