Unhappy over the ruling of a Pakistani court on the 26/11 case, New Delhi also said that evidence collected by the commission had "evidential value" to punish those involved in the worst ever terrorist attack in the country.
"Our belief is that the evidence collected by the commission is of evidential value," Home Secretary R K Singh told reporters here.
He was reacting to the ruling of a Rawalpindi court which said all findings of the commission that visited India were illegal and could not be made part of the evidence against the seven arrested 26/11 accused.
The court is hearing the terror case against seven 26/11 accused, including Lashkar-e-Taiba commander Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi.
Singh said New Delhi was would seek a copy of the court ruling from the authorities there through Indian High commission in Islamabad.
"After we go through the judgement, we will discuss with the Pakistan government as to what they propose to do about it," he said.
The eight-member commission, which included prosecutors and defence lawyers, visited Mumbai and interviewed a judge, a senior police officer and two doctors who conducted the autopsies on the terrorists bodies involved in the attacks and their victims.
The November 26, 2008 Mumbai carnage by 10 Pakistani terrorists had left 166 people dead. Nine of the terrorists were killed by the security forces while the remaining one, Ajmal Kasab, was nabbed and is lodged in a Mumbai jail.(More)
