Mounting pressure on Pakistan to hand over a militant group's chief, Iran on Friday sent its Interior Minister Mostafa Mohammad Najjar to Islamabad to discuss ways to crack down on the terror outfit blamed for a suicide attack that killed its elite Revolutionary Guards' top commanders.
Najjar, who is accompanied by a large security delegation, was accorded a guard of honour at the interior ministry before he held talks with his Pakistani counterpart Rehman Malik on means of fighting Jundullah.
Iran has for long claimed that members of Jundullah, a Baloch Sunni militant group, are active in Pakistan's Balochistan province and get support from some intelligence officials there.
Iran has asked
Pakistan to hand over members of Jundullah operating from its territory, including its chief Abdolmalek Rigi, who it said was hiding in Pakistan.
