NEW DELHI - In a dramatic accusation which will raise the spectre of a new stand-off between two nuclear-armed neighbours, India said that Pakistani intelligence was behind the July Mumbai bombings in which at least 186 people were killed.
The Mumbai police accused Pakistan's ISI intelligence agency of planning and masterminding the attacks, and said they were carried out by a militant Islamic group based in Pakistan. Islamabad denied the accusation and demanded that India produce evidence to back it up.
"India has always chosen this path of pointing fingers at Pakistan without evidence," Pakistan's Information Minister, Tariq Azim Khan, said. "If they have any evidence, they should provide us evidence and we will carry out our investigations."
