New Delhi, Jan 28 (IBNS) Pakistan High Commissioner Abdul Basit has assured that if India gives proper evidence, Pakistan will soon act against Jaish-e-Mohammad chief Maulana Masood Azhar.

Azhar is believed to be the mastermind behind the Pathankot terror attacks which left seven security personnel dead.

"If Pakistan team get proper evidence, then I am confident that Masood Azhar will not meet the same fate as Lakhvi. I can assure you that no individual or organization will be spared," Basit said.

Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi who is accused of planning the 26/11 Mumbai attacks, is still roaming free though India has provided  proofs to Pakistan over his role in the attacks.

 Basit said  though there are no dates decided yet for the Foreign Secretary-level talks between the two countries, he was happy that the talks have not been called off.

"Many mistakes were made after 26/11 by both countries which we are keen to avoid after Pathankot. India, Pakistan not calling off talks after Pathankot is a positive move," the envoy said.
