India to submit to Pakistan evidence of last week's cross-border militant attack

India will submit to Pakistan evidence that the three terrorists who carried out attacks in India's Punjab state one week ago were from Pakistan if the national security advisors of the two countries would meet later this month, said local media Monday.

The Press Trust of India quoted sources close to the development as saying Indian agencies are collecting evidence in the case of the Gurdaspur terror attack in Punjab last week.

"The soil samples found in the boots of the three killed terrorists have been sent for investigation," the sources were quoted as saying.

Seven people were killed in an attack by three militants in the northwest Indian border town of Gurdaspur in Punjab state last week.

The Indian authorities hinted the militants, who were also shot dead, were from Pakistan or Pakistan-controlled Kashmir.

Indian national security advisor Ajit Doval and his Pakistan counterpart Sartaj Aziz are supposed to meet this month in Delhi, as was agreed upon by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Pakistan counterpart Nawaz Sharif when they met last month during the Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit in Russia.
