US envoy meets Chidambaram

NEW DELHI: US Ambassador David C Mulford met Home Minister P Chidambaram here in the backdrop of Washington's offer to share information and collaborate with
New Delhi following the Mumbai terror attacks.
         
The meeting at North Block lasted about half-an-hour, official sources said. Officers from the Federal Bureau of Investigation have already questioned Mohammad Ajmal Amir, the lone surviving Lashkar-e-Taiba militant involved in the November 26 strikes, to ascertain his role and those of his handlers in Pakistan.
        
The US, which witnessed the deadly 9/11 attacks seven years ago, is working through a package for India on dealing with the situation arising out of the "horrific" Mumbai strikes by way of information sharing, collaboration and cooperation, according to a top Pentagon official.
