"I will not comment on it," Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi told Geo TV when asked to comment on the Wall Street Journal report which claimed that LeT leaders Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi and Zarar Shah had confessed to the group's involvement in the Mumbai terror strikes.

"Pakistan has launched its own independent investigation, forget what the world or India is saying. We have to take stock of things in-house. We should gauge our own internal matters," he said.
