The Associated Press: Official: Pakistani confesses to Mumbai attacks: "ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (AP) — A militant arrested in Pakistan has confessed involvement in the Mumbai terror attacks and is giving investigators details of the plot, a senior Pakistani government official said Wednesday. The revelation could add to pressure on Islamabad to either bring Zarar Shah and other suspects to trial or extradite them to India. '(Shah) has made some statement that he was involved,' said the government official, without providing specific details. 'I can tell you that he is singing.'
The official spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the disclosure, which was first reported in the Wall Street Journal on Wednesday
A senior intelligence officer said Shah and another suspect, Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi, were cooperating with investigators, but cautioned that authorities had not reached a definite conclusion as to their involvement yet."
