New Delhi, Dec 19 (ANI): Even as the reports suggest that the Pakistan government is ready to appeal against the bail granted to Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi, accused of plotting the 26/11 terror attack on Mumbai in 2008, India condemned the step by the neighbouring nation. Spokesperson of Ministry of External Affairs, Syed Akbaruddin said that the bail to terrorist commander will make the mockery of Pakistan's commitment to fight terror groups. Akbaruddin said that there have been repeated assurances on the persecution of seven accused of 26/11 Mumbai attack but no action by the other side. He further said that granting of bail to Lakhvi has taken this saga to another level and that India has strong concerns in the matter. Lakhvi was granted bail on Thursday by an anti-terror court in Islamabad which said the prosecution has been unable to provide evidence against him. He was among seven people arrested in the Mumbai attacks trial in Pakistan in 2009. Dec 19, 2014
