RAWALPINDI, Pakistan, Nov. 25 (UPI) -- A court in Pakistan charged seven suspects Wednesday in connection with the attacks that killed 166 people in Mumbai last year.
The indictments come on the eve of the anniversary of a 60-hour siege that targeted luxury hotels, Mumbai's main railway station, a restaurant and a Jewish center, Pakistan's English-language newspaper Dawn reports.
All seven suspects entered innocent pleas including the alleged mastermind of the attacks, Sakiur Rehman Lakhvi.
Wednesday's indictment comes a week after India handed Pakistan more information about the siege.
The information is said to include statements of key witnesses, including a magistrate and FBI officials, the Press Trust of India reports.
New Delhi has been pressuring Pakistan to speed up the investigation.
Court proceedings are taking place at a high security prison in the city of Rawalpindi.
