China Daily | Updated: 2008-12-15 07:38

British Prime Minister Gordon Brown met Pakistan and India's leaders yesterday, pledging more counter-terrorism support and funding in the wake of deadly terror attacks in India.

Brown promised Pakistan new bomb-scanning technology and some $9 million worth of assistance to help fight the causes of extremism. He also said more would be done to share data on terror groups.

Nearly three-quarters of the most serious terror plots investigated by British authorities have links to the Al-Qaeda terror network in Pakistan, Brown said.
