Against the backdrop of Burhan Wani episode, India has told Pakistan that terrorist in one country cannot be a martyr for another and hoped it would soon ratify the SAARC convention on Mutual Assistance on Criminal Matters and set up SAARC Terrorist Offences Monitoring Desk.
Making suo motu statements today in Rajya Sabha and Lok Sabha on his visit to Islamabad to attend the 7th SAARC Home Ministers Meeting yesterday, Home Minister Rajnath Singh said he had urged the members not to glorify terrorism or give patronage to it.
"A terrorist in one nation cannot be a martyr or freedom fighter for anyone," he said, adding that effective measures should be taken to ensure that those involved in terrorist acts, do not escape prosecution and punishment and are extradited so that they cannot escape prosecution.
A number of Pak-based terrorists, including Hafiz Sayeed of LeT and Masood Azhar of JeM, are wanted in India.
Pakistan had recently made a statement against the killing of Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani by security forces in Kashmir by dubbing him a "martyr" and "freedom fighter", inviting sharp rebuke from India.
"Pakistan is yet to ratify the SAARC convention on Mutual Assistance on Criminal Matters. Pakistan is also yet to convey its concurrence on setting up of SAARC Terrorist Offences Monitoring Desk and SAARC Drug Offences Monitoring Desk
