The advisor to the Prime Minister of Pakistan Rehman Malik said on Thursday that six suspects related to Mumbai attacks had been arrested in Pakistan.
Addressing a press conference in response to the dossier about Mumbai attacks provided by India, Malik said that a First Information Report (FIR) had been filed against the suspects and Pakistan still needed more information from India.
Malik said that the part of the conspiracy was made in Pakistan and the attackers went to India from Thatta, a town in the southern Sindh province in Pakistan.
He unveiled that some materials related to Mumbai attacks were purchased in Pakistan and three boats were used by the attackers.
The attackers would be tried for cyber crime and terrorism, Malik said, adding that any individual who had helped the attackers in India must be identified.
Malik said Pakistan was serious to bring the attackers of the Mumbai attacks to justice on tenable evidence and needed India to share more information.
Malik said that Pakistan did not have the DNA of Ajmal Amir Kasab, the lone attacker arrested by India in the Mumbai attacks.
The dossier of the investigation, together with 30 questions, has been handed over to India, Malik said.
He said that a suspect from Barcelona with the name of Javed Iqbal had been arrested and he gave other names to the investigators.
Pakistan has turned the information provided by India into evidence and it is credible because the investigation has been conducted by a high-level team, Malik said.
India accused that the Mumbai attacks, which occurred in November last year and left more than 170 people dead, were planned in Pakistan and urged Pakistan to take action against those behind the attacks.
In response to Pakistan's request that evidence should be given, India shared a dossier on Mumbai attacks and Pakistan has conducted investigations on the dossier.
