Pakistan, Mumbai Attacks Trial | featured news

U.S. prosecutors charged four Pakistani men Monday in connection with the 2008 terrorist attacks in Mumbai, India, that killed 166 people, including six Americans, although none of the defendants is in U.S. custody.

The Pakistani is the only survivor of the siege on the Indian city that killed 166 people. He was convicted on 86 counts, including murder and waging war.

A prosecutor says seven Pakistani suspects in last year's terror attacks in Mumbai have been indicted on terror charges.

Pakistan has been under pressure from India to do more to try to bring those behind the attacks, which left 163 people dead, to justice.

India protests that its neighbor is not serious about bringing Mumbai perpetrators to justice.

A court in Lahore, Pakistan, today ordered the release of a firebrand Islamic cleric with alleged links to the deadly attacks in Mumbai, India, last year, sparking an angry rebuke from Indian officials that Pakistan is not committed to meting out justice to militants.

The man accused of being the lone surviving gunman from last year's Mumbai attack pleaded not guilty Wednesday to 86 charges against him, including murder and waging war against India, lawyers said.

The trial of the only surviving suspected gunman in the bloody Mumbai siege began Friday with the prosecutor calling the attacks "a criminal conspiracy hatched in Pakistan to attack India."

The defence lawyer for the only surviving suspected gunman from the Mumbai attacks is sacked as he appears in court.
