The US has asked Pakistan to co-operate with India in the 26/11 investigations and have appealed them to check all terror groups operating in their soil.

We continue to urge the Pakistani government to cooperate with the Indian authorities to fully investigate these attacks. It (Mumbai terror attack) was a terrible tragedy. We want to see justice done and we continue to urge Pakistani cooperation.

<b>Mark Toner, State Department Deputy Spokesperson</b>

The US, Toner said, is having an ongoing conversation with the Pakistani authorities to urge them to address all terrorist groups operating on their soil and their territory including the Taliban groups.

We’ve urged them to do so in the past. We continue to urge them to do so and have worked with them on addressing the very real threat on their own soil.
