KARACHI: The Chief of the Naval Staff (CNS), Admiral Noman Bashir said on Friday that no evidence has been provided that Ajmal Kasab had gone to Mumbai from Pakistan.
He was addressing a news conference in connection with exercise 'Aman 2009' to be held in Pakistani waters from March 5 to 14.
When asked a question about Ajmal Kasab, the CNS replied that no evidence has been provided that he travelled to Mumbai from Pakistan.
The CNS said that India claims that some people from here had travelled in the boats. He said it was difficult to comment on this unless it is supported by evidence.
Admiral Noman said that the information he has with him so far does not prove that Ajmal Kasab had boarded a boat from Karachi. He said even if Ajmal Kasab had gone from here and entered the Indian waters, where were the Indian Coastguards and the Indian Navy.
The CNS said that there are a number of questions in this regard which need to be answered. He stated that the Government of India should provide evidence to the Government of Pakistan for investigation.
Admiral Noman said that the Indian claim from day one is that those responsible for the Mumbai attack had entered from the sea route. He said that the Indian Navy is 10 times bigger than that of Pakistan while the Coastguard was 12 times bigger than that of Pakistan.
