India, Pakistan share information on recent terrorist incidents

NEW DELHI: India and Pakistan on Monday shared new information on terrorist incidents, including those which have occurred recently in Ludhiana, Hyderabad and Ajmer.

At the second meeting of the India-Pakistan joint anti-terror mechanism (JATM) here, both sides agreed on continuing work to identify measures, exchange specific information and assist in investigations. The meeting came close on the heels of Friday’s bomb blasts in Karachi on the motorcade of the former Prime Minister, Benazir Bhutto, who escaped narrowly.

“The two sides reviewed the follow-up steps taken on the information shared during the first meeting of the JATM held in Islamabad on March 6, 2007 and in the intervening period,” a joint statement issued after the meeting said. The next meeting would be held in Islamabad, as per an earlier schedule.

The Indian delegation was headed by K.C. Singh, Additional Secretary in the Ministry of External Affairs, and the Pakistani delegation by Khalid Aziz Babar, Additional Secretary, Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
