Pakistan has denied any links with people involved in the last year London suicide bombing. Information minister Muhammad Ali Durrani dispelled the impression that a videotape of a suicide bomber, Tanveer Shahzad, might have been prepared in Pakistan.
Tanveer Shahzad in his video, released by al Qaeda on Thursday, a day ahead of the first anniversary of the London bombing, had threatened more attacks. Durrani told the BBC Urdu website that Pakistan is playing the role of front line state in the war on terrorism and hundreds of its security men have been killed in anti-terror campaign.
"Pakistan is itself the victim of terrorism," the minister said. He said those who have evidences to link Pakistan with the July 7 London suicide bombers should provide them to the government. He said Pakistan will fully cooperate in the investigation.
