India slams Pak for freeing Masood Azhar
Agence France-Presse
New Delhi, December 14

India on Saturday launched a blistering attack on Pakistan for releasing Masood Azhar, head of Jaish-e-Mohammad, accuses of launching murderous raids on its soil.

"It is quite clear that investigation and charges against Maulana Masood Azhar have not been pursued by the Pakistani authorities with any seriousness," foreign ministry spokesman Navtej Sarna told a news conference.

He was reacting to an announcement in Islamabad that Azhar, head of Jaish-e-Mohammad, a terrorist group active in Jammu and Kashmir, had been freed.

Azhar was detained in December 2001 shortly after his movement was blamed by New Delhi for an attack on the Indian Parliament that sent tensions soaring between New Delhi.

Question for the thread: Does India have a legitimate right to (1) capture him in Pakistan and bring him to justice in India; (2) execute him for his terrorist activities inside India?
