Pakistan's foreign minister on Thursday asked India to wait for proof from an investigation before blaming anyone for involvement in Mumbai

The statement was a response to a televised speech by Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in which he said that those behind coordinated attacks against Mumbai were based ‘outside the country’ and warned ‘neighbours’ who provide a haven to anti-India militants.
Pakistan's foreign minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi, in New Delhi for peace talks, told the private Dawn television station that nobody should be blamed until investigations were complete.
‘Our experience in the past tells us that we should not jump to conclusions,’ Qureshi said.
Qureshi said that Singh had constituted a federal investigation team to look into the attacks on luxury hotels, restaurants and the main train station in India's commercial heart, which have killed at least 100 people and injured about 300.
‘We should not go for a knee-jerk reaction,’ Qureshi said, adding he would meet Singh on Friday and express condolences, solidarity and support to him and the people of India.
‘We need to be calm, we need to be composed and we need to be supportive of each other.’ Qureshi said Pakistan and India needed to fight terrorism together, saying ‘this is a global menace... we have to join hands to deal with this menace collectively.’
India has in the past frequently accused Pakistan of backing Islamic militants active in India, although the prime minister did not identify any country by name during his speech.
Militant Pakistani group Lashkar-i-Tayyiba, which is fighting Indian rule in Kashmir, on Thursday denied any involvement in the Mumbai attacks.
