Taj hotel mumbai attack

Islamabad The trial in a Pakistani anti-terror court of five Lashker-e-Toiba operatives accused of involvement in the Mumbai attacks was adjourned on Saturday till July 18 without any proceedings.

The case, being heard by an anti-terror court in Rawalpindi, was adjourned for a fortnight due to the non-availability of a judge, sources said.

There has been no movement in the case since May 23 as Justice Sakhi Muhammad Kahut, the judge of anti-terror court number 2 who was hearing the matter, was removed as part of judicial reforms.

Subsequently, the Federal Investigation Agency approached Justice Muhammad Akram Awan, the judge in anti-terror court number 1, to take up the case and he repeatedly adjourned the matter. Awan was on leave on Friday due to personal reasons, the sources said.

The sources also said Baqir Ali Rana had been appointed as the new judge for anti-terror court number 2 and is expected to assume office on Monday.

He is expected to hear the case against the five LeT operatives as well as several other cases related to high-profile terrorist attacks.

Authorities have framed charges against the five LeT operatives, Zaikur Rehman Lakhvi, Zarar Shah, Abu al Qama, Shahid Jamil Riaz and Hamad Amin Sadiq, under the Anti-Terrorism Act, Pakistan Penal Code and a cyber crimes law.

On May 5, the court distributed copies of the chargesheet among the suspects. They are expected to be formally indicted at the next hearing.

The trial of the five LeT members is being held inside the high-security Adiala Jail in Rawalpindi due to security reasons.

Pak court adjourns trial of Lashkar operatives linked to 26/11 by darvan on 05 Jul 2009

This is outrageous and callous of Pakistan to tarnish the memory of hundreds of Indian that perished that day. Hopefully India has protested,and asked for extradition of the culprits.Procrastination by Pakistan is a sign of their weakness in dealing with terrorists and their integrity, if at all, any left, is further eroded to the world and people of India.

Pakistan is a country of lawless-ness.They have no regard for international laws. Education bring wisdom. Majority in Pakistan lack education. I like to hear from the International and Pakistan economists ,if they have future plans to bring economic reforms and growth in the backward country.

Pak Court and justice by kk on 04 Jul 2009

I think Pak and Indian governments are making fool of every one.Indian know that there will be no justice in Pakistan and why continue to push for i.t Stop all dealings/meeting with Pakistan till there is a definite proof that Pakis have delivered which they suppose to have done long ago.Let the Pakistani decide whether they want good relation with India or not?

Pakistan by Anant on 04 Jul 2009

It is idiotic to expect anything from Pakistan other than hatred for India. Pakistan will never ever do anything in favour of India because it is against their religion and is non-Islamic. Pakistanis with every breath want downfall of India and if they were powerful enough they will blow India to ashes. Pakistanis do everything to harm India and for the life of me I can't understand why the Indian political leaders want to talk to Pak or expect anything from them. Pakistan makes noises only because their backside is on fire and USA is keeping the fire going by paying out dollars.
