| Jaish-e-Mohammed chief Maulana Masood Azhar is not in the custody of the Pakistan government, Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said.
"Maulana Masood Azhar is wanted by the Government of Pakistan, but he is not in our custody and he is at large," Qureshi told state-run APP news agency.
He said Pakistan has taken "enough steps" to arrest culprits involved in terrorist activities.
Qureshi's remarks came about a week after Defence Minister Chaudhry Ahmed Mukhtar told a TV channel that Azhar had been detained by Pakistani authorities.
In a demarche issued after the Mumbai Terror attacks, India had asked Pakistan to hand over Azhar and underworld dons Tiger Memon and Dawood Ibrahim.
Pakistan has said it intends to take action against all terror suspects according to the country's laws and will not hand them over to India.
