NEW DELHI — India has accused Pakistan's powerful spy agency of planning and executing the 2008 Mumbai attacks, in the strongest and most specific allegation of Islamabad's involvement in the assault from a top official.

The remark comes a day before the foreign ministers of the rival nations are set to meet in Islamabad to attempt to rebuild a fragile peace dialogue that was shattered by the attacks, which killed 166 people. It appeared to be an attempt to ratchet up the pressure on Pakistan to prosecute people whom India says were deeply involved in the assault.

In an interview published Wednesday, Home Secretary G.K. Pillai accused Pakistan's powerful spy agency Inter-Services Intelligence of playing a key role the attacks.

"It was not just a peripheral role. They (the agency) were literally controlling and coordinating it from the beginning till the end," Pillai told the Indian Express newspaper.

5. If you read the accounts of the attack, it was very well-planned and coordinated

Specifically, the night landing on the beach showed professional acumen and the positioning and instructions to the gunmen was carefully planned and executed. I don't doubt that the architect of the operation is highly trained and professional.

These accusations could be true.

3. Yes except the next one could theoretically kill us all.

We need to watch any tension between India/Pakistan very closely.

4. I agree that we need to watch the tension...

But that doesn't mean that Pakistan's spy service wasn't involved in the Mumbai attack.
