Washington, Jun 16 (PTI) The US should tell Pakistan in clear terms that it will go after Major Iqbal, the ISI official who is believed to be the mastermind of the Mumbai terror attacks, once he is identified and would not spare him, a former CIA officer has said.
"We have to tell Pakistan that if we identify who Major Iqbal is -- the ISI officer who worked with David Headley to set up the attack on Mumbai -- we're coming after him," Bruce Riedel of the prestigious Brookings Institute said last week at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a Washington-based think tank.
"We're coming after him either by grabbing his assets, arresting him when he travels or if necessary, we'll come after him with extreme measures," he said.
