    P Chidambaram, Home Minister

    I mean it will be like a dossier?

    Yes, it will be a dossier with annexures, and supported by electronically-recorded evidence.

    But is it interrogation reports? Or is it more?

    It’s more than that. We have interrogated only one chap.

    Right, and obviously, yes.

    Others are Indians who are eyewitnesses. Interrogation reports, transcripts, intercepts — I think the evidence is unanswerable.

    And when you say present it to the world, would it be at a diplomatic level, or will it be made public?

    No, I think the idea is it to present it to the governments of the countries, and then as we go along, we’ll see whether we need to publicise it more. But if you present it to a large number of governments, much of it will come out in the public domain.

    So, when do we see this happening? Do we see this happening within this week or...?

    This, I think, it’s being done, beginning this week.

    And will this be evidence only to do with this attack, or with many, or with a series?

    No, we are now focusing on this attack.

    And on this attack, you would say that the evidence now is 1, 2, 3. It’s a straight line?

    It’s unanswerable. No one in his right mind can give an answer to this evidence.

    And the evidence leads to what conclusion?

    Evidence leads to the conclusion that the plot was hatched, launched in Pakistan and as the operation was on in Mumbai, it was masterminded and controlled from Pakistan. Controlled, as in handlers were in Pakistan and the wherewithal was provided by Pakistani sources. Now when I say Pakistan, I am talking about Pakistan territory.

    ... contd.
