Terrorists topic tops upcoming Pakistan-India talks

    ISLAMABAD, May 29 (Xinhua) -- The focus of upcoming Pakistan-India secretary-level talks would be on the terrorist acts in Balochistan and Pakistan's tribal belt of Waziristan, according to local report on Monday.

    Pakistan will place before India documentary proof of involvement of its Afghanistan-based consulates in the terrorist acts on Pakistani soil during the two-day interior secretary-level talks beginning here Tuesday, said a report of The Nation on Monday.

    During these parleys, Interior Secretary Syed Kamal Shah will discuss various issues including terrorism, drug trafficking and exchange of prisoners etc. with his Indian counterpart V K Duggal.

    "Pakistan will ask India to restrain its consulates in Afghanistan from supporting the miscreants in Balochistan and Waziristan," an official here said requesting anonymity.

    India would be given detailed facts and figures on how the terrorists and anti-state elements were being supported by the Indian diplomatic entities operating in Afghanistan, he added.

    Officials here said the other important issue to be discussed in detail was that of prisoners' exchange.

    Recently, the two sides announced to release dozens of prisoners ahead of the vital talks between the interior secretaries.

    An official said it was in September last year that the two states agreed to release all the detainees, including hundreds of fishermen. Despite that, most of them were still in the jails of Pakistan and India.

    Many prisoners had completed their sentences and also had their nationalities confirmed but they remained imprisoned because of lack of mutual trust between the two sides, he added.

    Besides, he said that both sides should look into ways and means to increase cooperation between the Anti-Narcotics Force (ANF) of Pakistan and the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) of India. Enditem
