Pakistan sacks Mumbai attacks prosecutor

President Asif Ali Zardari on Friday sacked Deputy Attorney General Sardar Muhammad Ghazi, who was the special prosecutor for the trial of the Pakistani suspects in the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks, Dawn News reported.


Ghazi had on February 18 claimed that the Pakistani government had formally sought extradition of Ajmal Amir Qasab, the lone terrorist captured alive during the November 26-29, 2008 carnage that claimed the lives of more than 170 people, including 26 foreigners, and injured more than 300.



Pakistani government officials had immediately contradicted Ghazi's claims.
