Pakistan in "denial" over Mumbai carnage: India

NEW DELHI (AFP) — India on Wednesday said Pakistan was in "denial" over the Mumbai attacks and refusing to acknowledge evidence linking the gunmen who carried out the assault with elements in Pakistan.

"If anyone is in a state of denial, anything that we give will be denied," Home Minister P. Chidambaram told reporters.

The minister said the Pakistani father of the sole surviving gunman had confirmed to Pakistan television that his son was involved.

"If that is not evidence then what is?" Chidambaram said.

The November attacks in Mumbai left 172 dead, including nine of the gunmen whom India insists were trained by the Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba militant group and abetted by unnamed Pakistani agencies.

"Evidence is not only with India but also with the investigating agencies of the United States and Britain (and) instead of being in a denial mode, Pakistan should take effective steps to bring those responsible to justice," he said.

Pakistan has so far banned a charity which India says is a front for the Lashkar guerrillas and put several radical Islamist leaders under house arrest.
