Indian Foreign Secretary Nirupama Rao said in an exclusive interview at Thimpu that India is not satisfied with investigations and trails of the 26/11 Mumbai attackers in Pakistan. The ties between the two South Asian neighbours plummeted after the 2008 Mumbai attacks in which 166 people were killed that derailed a sluggish four-year-old peace process with Pakistan.Pakistan has acknowledged that the attack was plotted and partly launched from its soil, and has put on trial seven suspects linked to the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) militant group, which was blamed for the attacks. But India says it is not satisfied with the pace of the Pakistani investigation and has demanded more people be put on trial for the attack, including the founder of the LeT, Hafiz Mohammad Saeed. Nirupama added to say that India is to share the evidence with Islamabad once the probe into 2007 Samjhauta Express train blasts had concluded.
