EFSAS comments on Nawaz Sharif's statement on Mumbai attacks
May 18, 2018
Nawaz Sharif is not the first senior representative of the Pakistan government to acknowledge that Pakistani terrorists with the active backing of “elements” of the Pakistani intelligence agency, Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), had carried out the Mumbai attacks. Former ISI Chief Lieutenant General Shuja Pasha had during a visit to the US in December 2008 unambiguously told the then CIA Chief General Michael Hayden that “retired military officers and retired intelligence officers” had been involved in planning the Mumbai attacks.
