The Hindu : Front Page : Evidence handed over to Pakistan: "NEW DELHI: India on Monday summoned Pakistan High Commissioner Shahid Malik to the Foreign Office here to hand over “material” about Pakistani involvement in the Mumbai terror attacks.
The move is part of the diplomatic offensive by New Delhi to convince the international community and Islamabad to take tangible action against the masterminds of the Mumbai attacks.
This includes briefings to all resident heads of missions within the next 24 hours while Indian Ambassadors will be doing the same in their countries of accreditation. India also shared the material during a meeting on Monday between Foreign Secretary Shiv Shankar Menon and his counterpart and Chinese Vice-Foreign Minister, He Yafei.
External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee has started writing to all his counterparts with details of the events in Mumbai and describing the progress made in the investigations. Home Minister P. Chidambaram will travel to the U.S. this week to share evidence on the Mumbai attacks as part of efforts to build pressure on Pakistan. “Our goals are clear.
