Pakistan has asked the Indian government to share information on
its investigation into the Feb. 18 firebombing of Pakistan- bound
Samjhauta Express in which 68 people, mostly Pakistanis, were
killed.
The two countries decided to institutionalize an India-Pakistan
joint anti-terrorism mechanism to identify and implement counter-
terrorism initiatives and investigations, during a meeting
Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf and Indian Prime Minister
Manmohan Singh in Havana last September.
