[Dawn] The chief of banned organisation Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD) Hafiz Muhammad Saeed has challenged India to prove his organisation's link to the Mumbai attacks, claiming India would never be able to substantiate this allegation.Speaking to DawnNews, Saeed said that India had sent a 400-page report to the Pak government in an attempt to substantiate its claims but had failed miserable.
He accused the government of being spineless and succumbing to the pressure from India and the United States.
"Pakistain's Interior Ministry tried hard to defend the Indian stance but failed. Pakistain is confronted with internal and external challenges and India is benefiting from that. Even the US is now talking India's talk," said Saeed.
He disclosed that he had written two letters to UN Chief Ban Ki Moon to clarify his position and the workings of his organisation.
"We had asked Ban Ki Moon to bring our case in an international court and we had stressed that we are ready to appear before the court. The only response we had from him was informing us that he had received our letters," said the JuD chief.
Saeed strongly condemned US activities in Afghanistan and Pakistain and said the suicide kabooms were a response to the drone attacks.
"When you spill innocent blood and the people you kill are not even technologically advanced like you -- then such suicide kabooms should be expected as a natural reaction," argued Saeed.
He also stressed that his organisation had nothing to do with Lashkar-e-Taiba.

"The UN has shown disregard for Mohammedan issues. The Mohammedan nations need to end their ties with the United States and struggle for their rights," he said.
