March 29, 2016 09:51

Influential US lawmakers, religious leaders and Indian Americans today strongly condemned the ghastly terrorist attack in Lahore that killed 72 Pakistanis.

"The barbaric attack in Pakistan is an outrage and I condemn this heinous act of terror in the strongest the possible terms," said Congresswoman Grace Meng after Sunday's attack, one of the worst to hit the country since the Peshawar school massacre in 2014.

"Those responsible for this attack are cowards, and I hope that these evil and gutless people are swiftly brought to justice. I call on US officials to help Pakistan with any assistance needed in that effort and United States stands with Pakistan at this difficult time," Meng said.
