Lanka rubbishes India link in attack on cricket team

6 Mar 2009,

Sri Lanka has rubbished Pakistan’s allegations that India could be involved in the attack on the Sri Lanka cricket team in Lahore on March 3.

On Thursday, Indian involvement in the terror attack on the Sri Lankan cricket team cannot be ruled out, Lahore Commissioner Khushro Pervaiz was quoted as saying Tuesday.

India was trying to weaken Pakistan, Gen (retired) Hameed Gul, a former chief of the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) had said.

He told Geo News that India wanted to declare Pakistan a terrorist state and the firing on the Sri Lankan team was related to that conspiracy.

Six escorting security personnel were killed and six Sri Lankan cricketers as well as the assistant coach were injured when the team cavalcade was targeted by heavily armed gunmen close to the Gaddafi Stadium while they were going to play the third day of the second Test against Pakistan.
