Key conspirators, planners of 26/11 terror attacks continue to remain protected and unpunished: Jaishankar

New Delhi, 28/10: External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Friday said the key conspirators and planners of the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks continue to remain protected and unpunished, which undermined the collective credibility.

 

 

He also said that when it comes to proscribing some terrorists, the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) has “regrettably” been unable to act in some cases because of “political considerations”.

The minister was speaking at a special meeting here on ‘Countering the Use of New and Emerging Technologies for Terrorist Purposes’. The first leg of the event is being held at the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel in south Mumbai. This hotel was one of the places attacked by the terrorists during the November 2008 attacks. “The key conspirators and the planners of 26/11 terror attacks continue to remain protected and unpunished,” Jaishankar said.
