The Ministry of Foreign Affairs rejected the allegations made by the Supreme Court of India regarding the 1993 Mumbai blasts on Thursday.

The Indian Supreme Court alleged that the Pakistani government agencies were involved in the blasts. The Pakistani government clarified that neither the government nor any agency played any role in the said attacks.

The ministry’s press statement said that Pakistan had been a victim of terrorism and was working with the United Nation (UN) to maintain peace in the region.Pakistan remains committed in its resolve to fighting terrorism and engaging with India in a constructive, sustained and result-oriented dialogue process,” it further stated.

The response came hours after the Indian court claimed Pakistan was involved in the attacks on Thursday.While announcing the sentences for Yakub Meon and Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt, Supreme Court judge P Sathashivam said the Memon brothers and another fugitive suspect who is said to be living in Pakistan “were archers and rest of the appellants were arrows in their hands”.

According to NDTV, the Supreme court of India criticized Pakistan for ‘aiding and aiding and abetting the acts of terrorism’.The court further stated:“The training received in Pakistan materialized in the unfortunate serial blasts in Bombay, India on 12th March 1993. A responsible state owes an obligation not only to another state but also to the international community as a whole. We sincerely hope that every State will strive towards the same.”

The attacks on March 12, 1993, were believed to have been staged by Mumbai’s Muslim-dominated underworld in retaliation for anti-Muslim violence that left more than 1,000 dead in the city a few months earlier.

Tiger Memon and Dawood Ibrahim, the other alleged masterminds of the attacks, have been on the run since 1993. Indian investigators say they were helped by Pakistan’s intelligence service, a charge denied by Islamabad.
