India hasn't demanded Saeed's arrest: Qureshi

Islamabad, Mar 7: Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi has claimed that India has not demanded the arrest of JuD chief and 26/11 mastermind Hafiz Saeed.

Speaking to reporters on Saturday evening, Mar 6, Quershi said, "You will be surprised that they made no demand (for the arrest of Saeed)."

He was responding to a question on whether India had demanded Saeed's arrest.

Qureshi further said that the issue was not even raised in the Foreign Secretary-level talks with Pakistan on Feb 26.

"Pakistan is not interested in talks for the sake of talks and photo opportunities," he said.

"Instead, it wants talks that are result-oriented and meaningful," he said.

"Our stand is very clear we were ready for talks yesterday and we are ready today too. But we want purposeful and meaningful talks," he added.
