'ISI, attack planners linked'

Indian Foreign Secretary Shivshankar Menon has said that Pakistan's spy agency was linked to planners behind the Mumbai attack, the first time the government has directly named the organisation over November's deadly raids.

"The perpetrators planned, trained and launched their attacks from Pakistan, and the organizers were and remain clients and creations of the ISI," Menon said in a speech in Paris, referring to the military spy agency.
