Pakistani Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz on Saturday urged India to share information regarding investigations into last month's trans-border train firebombing, which had killed 68 people, mostly Pakistanis, state- run media reported.
Addressing a ceremony to distribute cheques among the affected families or victims of Samjhota Express in east city Lahore, Aziz said Pakistan is committed to ensure that those involved in the tragedy are exposed and brought to justice, the state-run Associated Press of Pakistan reported.
The Samjhota Express, which runs between the Pakistani city of Lahore and the Indian border town of Atari, was targeted near the Indian city of Panipat on Feb. 19.
Earlier, India had not accepted a request from Pakistan to carry out joint investigation into the tragedy but promised to share information about the investigation.
"We had offered India joint investigation into the Samjhota Express incident but India did not agree," Aziz was quoted as saying. "They are conducting the probe but have not as yet given us any tangible information in this regard."
During the first meeting of Pakistani-Indian joint anti-terror mechanism held on March 6-7 in Islamabad, India reportedly has shared "some" information with Pakistan but did not share further details about the probe, which disappointed Pakistani officials.
