AK Dogar, his lawyer, speaking to a news channel, has rubbished the two FIRs saying the charges levelled against Saeed are ridiculous.

He says the two FIRs against Saeed do not even fall under the provisions of the Anti-Terror Act.

Meanwhile, India's Foreign Minister SM Krishna has said that India will be satisfied only when Saeed is booked for his role in the Mumbai attacks.

On Friday, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said that Pakistan's action against Saeed was some movement forward.
