“The inordinate delay in justice for these victims, despite the availability of evidence, illustrates the unwillingness of the Indian government to hold the perpetrators to account for their barbaric action,” the Pakistan Foreign Office spokesperson stated.
On February 18 in 2007, an IED blast was detonated in the Samjhauta train – which runs between Delhi and Lahore – at Panipat in Haryana. 68 people including 43 Pakistan nationals, 10 Indian citizens and 15 unidentified people were killed in the blast.

Haryana Police initially registered an FIR in the case but the Ministry of Home Affairs consequently transferred the probe to the NIA in July 2010. The first charge sheet was filed in the case in June 2011 and two supplementary charge sheets were filed in August 2012 and June 2013.
