October 11, 2011 16:13

A Pakistan court today disposed of a petition challenging an anti-terrorism court's decision to allow the constitution of a commission to visit India and
record the statements of key officials who investigated the 2008 Mumbai attacks.

The Rawalpindi bench of the Lahore High Court disposed of the petition filed by Khwaja Sultan, the counsel for Lashkar-e-Taiba commander Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi, "as it was not pressed".

Sultan had filed the petition after the anti-terrorism court conducting the trial of seven Pakistani suspects charged with involvement in the Mumbai attacks, including Lakhvi, had allowed the formation of the commission to visit India.
