7/11 blasts: US gets a proof of Pak role
 India has given the US a sneak preview of the evidence gathered after the 7/11 Mumbai blasts which established Pakistani involvement.
Talking to newspersons, US ambassador David Mulford said the two sides had held "discussions" on the investigations and the evidence, after Mumbai police commissioner A N Roy made the dramatic announcement of Pakistani involvement.
India also lodged a strongly-worded protest against US ambassador to Pakistan Ryan Crocker’s recent statements in Islamabad to visiting US official Steven Mann.
The message was given by senior MEA officials when Mann visited South Block on Friday. Mulford, meanwhile, said the US had offered assistance to India on aspects of counter-terrorism, including forensics, after the terror incidents.
"We are working with the Indian government," he said. Trying to put a brave face on counter-terrorism cooperation with India, he said it could be better.
Having committed to provide "evidence" that Pakistan-sponsored terrorist group Lashkar-e-Taiba and the ISI were behind the blasts, the onus — some say unfairly — falls on India to prove its case.
Diplomatic sources say, given Pakistan's virtually indispensable positioning of itself as a bulwark against terror, India's case needed to be rock solid.
