Officials from India and Pakistan hold round of peace talks after arrest in Mumbai attacks
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW DELHI — Officials from India and Pakistan have started another round of peace talks after the recent arrest of a key suspect in the terror attack on India’s financial capital four years ago.
Wednesday’s talks between India’s Foreign Secretary and his Pakistani counterpart are being held 10 days after the suspect told Indian investigators that Pakistan’s intelligence agency officials were present in a Karachi control room while he and others directed attackers on the ground in Mumbai.
Last month, India and Pakistan held inconclusive talks on resolving long-standing disputes over a glacier in the Himalayas and a maritime boundary.
The latest meeting was expected to prepare the agenda for talks between the foreign ministers of the two countries next month.
