Statement by External Affairs Minister Shri Pranab Mukherjee on Pakistan High Commissioner’s call on Home Minister

The Pakistani High Commissioner paid a courtesy call on the Home Minister on January 29, 2009. He did not provide any details on the results of the investigation in Pakistan into the Mumbai attacks.

We have also seen media reports about certain statements by various Pakistani officials on their ongoing investigations, including a certain reported clarification by the Pakistani Prime Minister.

I would like to underline that we have so far not received any official Pakistani response to the Indian dossier or official information on the outcome of their investigations. These are awaited.
