Washington : Terming as “horrendous” the Mumbai terror attacks, which killed nearly 200 people including 6 Americans, the US Attorney General Michael Mukasey has said that the FBI is working with Indian investigative agencies and assisting them to collect the evidence about the terrorists.
“Investigation is on the ground to assist Indian authorities. The FBI is looking into whatever evidence they can get,” Mukasey said in his first comments on the terror attacks, adding the act was “horrendous”.
“I believe we have jurisdiction,” Mukasey said but declined to comment on the likelihood of eventual indictments in the United States.
Mukasey said he did not have enough details to say whether any charges eventually would be brought in the United States.
He, however, said the episode has given an “object lesson” on the need for continued vigilance including keeping an eye on suspected terror outfits.
