He further said it was clear from day one "where they (perpetrators) came from and whose nationals they were". Lamenting the lack of cooperation from Pakistan, Sharma said, "It would have been in the interest of the region and for creating a conducive environment, if Pakistan had not gone into a denial mode but accepted in the beginning, co-operated and honoured its commitments."
As a nation state Pakistan is obliged to take action, to cooperate and to ensure that the perpetrators are brought to justice and the infrastructure there is effectively dismantled and neutralised, Sharma said.
