SCENARIOS - What next after India presents Mumbai evidence?

By Simon Denyer

NEW DELHI (Reuters) - India presented a dossier of material to Pakistan this week which it said showed that Pakistani militants carried out the November attacks in Mumbai that killed 179 people.

It wants Pakistan to investigate fully the leads in the dossier and help bring those responsible for planning and coordinating the attacks to justice in India. Britain and the United States have joined India in blaming the banned Islamist group Lashkar-e-Taiba for carrying out the attacks.

The Hindu newspaper has published a scanned copy of the dossier on its website (www.hindu.com/nic/dossier.htm).

A more complete dossier of material has also been given to countries who lost nationals in the attacks.

Pakistan says it is examining the material. The question now is how it will respond, and how India will view that response.

Pakistan has already said it would not hand over any of its nationals to face trial in India.
