The trial of five men accused in the Mumbai attacks that killed over 150 people is likely to start next week, Pakistan's Interior Minister said on Saturday.Rehman Malik said the investigation into the role that the five played in the three-day siege of Mumbai last November is "almost complete."He said the five men are in custody, and "their trial is going to commence probably next week." Malik also rejected allegations- Malik blamed Indian officials for delaying the probe. "Delay in the Mumbai attacks probe is not because of us but due to India. India took 90 days to submit the report, while we took just 76 days," he said. New Delhi blames the assault on militants trained in Pakistan and has pushed Islamabad to move swiftly to hunt down those responsible for orchestrating the attack. India has also demanded that Islamabad hand over the suspects, but Pakistan has rejected that call, saying it would try any suspects in its own courts. The US and other Western countries are also closely watching Pakistan's efforts to punish the militant suspects accused of planning and aiding the November 26-28 attacks in Mumbai that also wounded scores. Indian security forces killed nine of the Mumbai attackers and arrested the lone survivor, Agmal Kasab, who New Delhi said belonged to the Pakistani militant outfit, Laskhar-e-Toiba. He told investigators the militants were trained on Pakistani soil and the attack was planner there. Regards Shail |
