Sources said Malik briefed Sabharwal on Pakistans response to India’s latest dossier on the Mumbai attacks, which had called on Islamabad to take action against Jamaat-ud-Dawah chief Hafiz Mohammad Saeed, the alleged mastermind of the assault.

No further details were immediately available. There was also no official word on the meeting.

Pakistan has already said the evidence provided so far by India is inadequate for arresting or prosecuting Saeed.

Seven suspects arrested by Pakistani authorities in connection with the Mumbai attacks, including five Lashker-e-Taiba operatives, are currently facing trial in an anti-terrorism court.

Earlier in the day, Malik discussed Pakistan’s probe into the Mumbai attacks with Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani.
