New Delhi: Amid a chill in Indo-Pak ties, US Assistant Secretary of State Richard Boucher is expected to undertake a visit here next week to discuss the situation arising out of the Mumbai attacks.

Boucher will meet Foreign Secretary Shivshankar Menon during which the two sides will deliberate on how the perpetrators of the Mumbai terror strikes can be brought to justice.

The two sides are expected to confabulate on the latest in the investigations into the attacks which were carried out by Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Toiba outfit.

Boucher is also expected to travel to Pakistan during the visit to the region.

India has already prepared a dossier of evidence about involvement of LeT whose 10 heavily-armed terrorists came from Karachi to launch attacks in Mumbai on November 26.

The dossier includes confession of Ajmal Amir Kasab, the lone terrorist arrested during the Mumbai attacks, and technical evidence.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) of the US also has conducted a parallel probe into the attacks in which six Americans lost their lives.

The FBI has questioned Kasab and also has other technical evidence regarding involvement of Pakistan-based terrorists in the attacks.

What's your reaction?
