Pak never arrested Saeed for 26/11 attacks: Shinde

December 17, 2012 14:21

More on Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde's statement in Parliament today. Calling Pakistan's bluff, India today said JuD chief Hafiz Saeed had never been arrested in connection with Mumbai terror attacks even though its Interior Minister Rehman Malik claimed so. Making a statement in both Houses of Parliament, Shinde said Malik, who just concluded his visit here, was "misinformed" about the actual reasons for the arrest of Saeed whom India blames as the main conspirator in the 26/11 attacks. "From the papers given to us, it is clear that the detentions of Hafiz Saeed in the aforesaid cases were for other reasons and not for his role as a conspirator in the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks.
