ISLAMABAD, July 13: Interior Minister Aftab Ahmed Khan Sherpao on Wednesday said Pakistan would share with the UK all possible information that could help investigations into the recent London blasts.

Speaking at a press conference, the minister said: “We have a Memorandum of Understanding with 48 countries for cooperation in fighting terrorism and we will extend whatever cooperation the UK is seeking in terms of eliminating global terrorism.”

Asked whether there had been any arrests in Pakistan in connection with the London blasts, the minister said he could not share such information with the press at this stage.

But Mr Sherpao disclosed that Pakistan had provided “intelligence information” to the British authorities and had helped them to avert a major disaster before the UK elections.
