BAHRAIN (PTI): Chief Minister of western Indian Maharashtra State Sharad Pawar has categorically stated that no Gulf state was involved in last years bomb blasts that shook Indias commercial capital of Bombay.
Giving a clean chit to the Dubai government Pawar said there is absolutely no involvement of any Gulf state because the alleged culprits only fled to Dubai and from there ran away elsewhere.
What can the Dubai authorities do when the person concerned is only a transit or a visit visa passenger Pawar said referring to the escape of Memon brothers the prime suspects in the explosions from the emirate.
About Pakistan’s rebuttal that either the alleged culprits fled to the country from Dubai or that it was involved in the blasts the chief minister said whatever their denial we have established information that Memon brothers and their families flew to Karachi from Dubai and are untraceable since then.
