New Delhi/Lahore, Dec. 12: In the wake of last month’s terror attacks in Mumbai, Pakistan and India are apparently in disagreement right now about the best way forward in dealing with the menace of terrorism, but according to experts, neither President Asif Ali Zardari nor Chief of Army Staff, General Asfaq Parvez Kayani can be seen to be folding to Indian demands.

According to Shuja Nawaz, the author of "Crossed Swords: Pakistan, Its Army, and the Wars Within", General "Kayani has a much more liberal outlook" than past Army chiefs, but adds that in the process of reforming the Army and taking it back towards its core responsibilities, he will seek to ensure that it retains a say in matters of state.

Islamabad - A Pakistani man has recognized the lone arrested attacker in last month's Mumbai carnage, Ajmal Amir Kasab, as his son, a media report said on Friday.

"This is the truth. I have seen the picture in the newspaper. This is my son Ajmal," the man who identified himself as Amir Kasab told the English-language Dawn newspaper.

Karachi, Dec. 12 : Pakistan's Dawn newspaper has confirmed that there is a link between Faridkot in Punjab province and the terror attacks that were launched on Mumbai last month.

In a special report, the Dawn says that the targeting of the Lashkar-e-Taiba and the Jamaatud Dawa and the rounding up of the activists belonging to the two jihadi organisations appear to have been triggered by information originating in India.

The company that provided the Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service, used by the 26/11 terrorists to keep in touch with their bosses has been traced by the Crime Branch of the Mumbai police. Apparently, it has been confirmed by the US-based company, Call Phoenix that the terrorists interacted to someone located in Pakistan.

The Crime Branch has also informed that approximately 60 hours of the conversation that occurred between the terrorists and someone in Pakistan during the terror attacks has been taped by the investigators.

Islamabad, Dec. 12 : Pakistan is carrying out its own investigation into last month's terrorist attacks in Mumbai, President Asif Ali Zardari said on Thursday.

"The government is undertaking its own investigation of the incident and taking appropriate measures," an official statement quoted Zardari as telling visiting US Deputy Secretary of State John Negroponte in a meeting at the President's House.

Lahore, Dec. 12 : The Pakistan Government has directed public and private TV channels not to air statements by banned Pakistani outfits, a private TV channel reported on Thursday.

The Daily Times quoted the channel authorities as saying that the government has also cancelled the declaration of weekly `Ghazwa' and the monthly `Al Dawa' - published by the now-banned Jamaat-ud-Daawa, the political wing of the militant outfit Lashkar-e-Toiba.

The ban came in the wake of a crackdown launched on the charity by the Pakistani authorities.

On Thursday, the government placed the chief of Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD) Hafiz Muhammad Saeed under house arrest for a period of three months in Lahore.
