New Delhi : Visiting Israeli Tourism Minister Stas Misezhnikov Wednesday said the “murderous attack” outside the Delhi High Court that killed 10 people and injured nearly 50 could only be the handiwork of a “twisted mind”.
“I am shocked and dismayed after watching and hearing the pictures and sounds of the vicious terrorist action at the Delhi High Court,” Misezhnikov said here.
“Only a twisted mind can perpetuate a murderous attack against a shrine of justice and democracy, a house in which all men are equal and peace loving,” he said.
Describing India and Israel as “close partners” as well as “brothers in times of joy and sorrow,” the minister said: “After spending the last couple of days in New Delhi, I know that the Indian people and the government of India will prevail.”
India and Israel actively cooperate in sharing intelligence to combat terrorism.
