US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton pressed Pakistan to do more in order to combat terror networks.

During a visit to India, Clinton told a press conference: “We look to the government of Pakistan to do more”.
“It needs to make sure its territory is not used as a launching pad for terrorist attacks anywhere, including inside Pakistan”, the US official noted a day after she said Al-Qaeda chief Ayman al-Zawahiri was believed to be hiding in Pakistan.

For his part, Indian Foreign Minister S.M. Krishna stressed "the need for stronger action from Pakistan on terrorism, including on bringing to justice the perpetrators of the Mumbai terrorist attacks".

Clinton said the US and India were deepening security co-operation, while Krishna detailed how they already shared intelligence and expertise.

On Monday, Clinton also pressed Pakistan over the presence of the founder of the increasingly powerful militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) who is wanted for the 2008 Mumbai attacks.
