Islamabad, May 08: The death sentence handed down to Pakistani national Ajmal Kasab by an Indian court for his role in the Mumbai terror attacks will not affect the proposed talks between the Foreign Ministers of the two countries.
Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi made this remarks yesterday while talking to state-run PTV.
Pakistan will give its response on the sentencing of Kasab after experts review the detailed judgement, he said.
The Indian court’s decision will not affect forthcoming talks between the two Foreign Ministers, he said.
Qureshi added that he would soon fix the date for a meeting with his Indian counterpart S M Krishna. He described the Mumbai attacks as a “very tragic incident” that should not have happened.
