Rice bids to defuse tension over Indian attacks
The gunmen who attacked Mumbai set out by boat from Pakistan’s port of Karachi, a top police official said, as the US secretary of state headed today to India in Washington’s efforts to defuse tension between the two nuclear rivals.
As evidence of the militants’ links to Pakistan mounted, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice was to arrive in New Delhi as part of the US effort to ensure Islamabad cooperates in the investigation and to ease any antagonism in the region.
