India to urge Pakistan to arrest alleged Mumbai mastermind

India will urge Pakistan to arrest a key Islamist militant leader for his role in the Mumbai attacks, a day after an arrest warrant was issued against the raid's alleged mastermind, an official said on Wednesday.

An Indian court on Tuesday issued arrest warrants against 22 Pakistanis, including Jamaat-ud-Dawa chief Hafiz Mohammad Saeed, for their role in the conspiracy that led to the Mumbai attacks last November, in which 175 people were killed. (Reuters)
