November 10, 2012 19:26

The government today said it was hopeful about getting voice samples of Pakistan-based handlers of 26/11 Mumbai attackers and the speedy trial of the seven prime accused -- including LeT commander Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi.

Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde said he has asked his Pakistani counterpart Rehman Malik to hand over the voice samples of those Pakistanis who were giving directions to the 10 terrorists during the audacious terror attack in 2008 that claimed 166 lives.

"We are hopeful that we will get the voice samples. They (Pakistan) will consult their legal department. They may come to us with something. We will also consult our legal department," he told a press conference.
