'Terrorist' is freed in Pakistan

A Pakistani court yesterday released one of India’s most wanted terrorist suspects, casting a shadow over an announcement about peace talks between the nuclear-armed neighbours next month.

Hafiz Mohammed Saeed is the founder of the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) group, which India accuses of carrying out a string of terrorist attacks, including the Bombay train bombings that killed 186 people in July.
India has repeatedly asked Pakistan to extradite Mr Saeed, whose group fought Indian forces in the disputed region of Kashmir and was blamed for an attack on the Indian parliament in 2001.

But the Lahore High Court declared that the former university professor’s detention in August, under Pakistan’s Security Act, was illegal.

The decision came hours before Pakistan and India announced that peace talks would resume on November 14.
