RAWALPINDI: Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf on Monday extended "unequivocal" support to India in the investigation of the "dastardly terrorist attack" blasts in Delhi on Saturday.
"Pakistan fully condoles the Government of India as well as with the families of the victims of the dastardly terrorist attack and extends unequivocal support in any investigation," Musharraf told media persons at the Army House.
He expressed his happiness over the agreement reached between India and Pakistan to open five relief centres along the LoC for the victims of the recent earthquake on both sides of Kashmir.
