NEW DELHI, Jan 9: US Ambassador to India David C. Mulford said here on Friday that allegation related to the Mumbai terror attacks should not be levelled without evidence.

When asked by reporters about Indian prime minister’s observation that Pakistan’s agencies could be “involved” in the attacks, he said: “I don’t think we want to take a view that we make accusations against certain parties without the usual evidences, proofs.”

“The US has been pressing for deeper understanding in Pakistan of the roots of the problem of terrorism,” he said.

“By learning more and more I hope that we can bring the people who committed this heinous act to book,” he said.—APP
