Foreign Office spokesperson Aziz Ahmed Khan said, in Islamabad, on January 1, during a daily briefing, "We have received a list of 20 alleged fugitives from India without any evidence of their involvement in terrorist activities." The Pakistan High Commission in New Delhi was, on January 1, handed over a list of 20 "fugitives of law" reportedly residing in Pakistan with the request that they be apprehended and handed over to India. He said, if India provided concrete evidence action under the law of the country would be taken against those involved in the terrorist attack, provided they were residing in Pakistan.

Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf told visiting US Senators, on January, 8 that he did not believe that Osama bin Laden had escaped to Pakistan to evade possible US capture. Senator Joseph Lieberman said the delegation of US Senators touring the South Asian region had discussed the possible whereabouts of bin Laden during their meeting with President Pervez Musharraf in Islamabad. "He (Musharraf) does not think that Osama bin Laden is in Pakistan. Of course, he said he does not know for sure. His own guess is that he is hiding in the mountains in Afghanistan," Lieberman said.

Mohammad Ashraf Saraf, a leader of All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC), has called upon the international community to draw a clear distinction between terrorism and ‘freedom movement’. Terrorism would have to be differentiated from the "just and legal struggle of Kashmiri people for the implementation of UN resolution", Saraf said while talking to Dawn, a Pakistani daily, in Islamabad, on January 9. On the Kashmir issue, he said militancy would end "the day India withdrew its 700,000 troops from the valley." Commenting on cross-border terrorism, he claimed that the number of Pakistanis involved in militancy in Kashmir was a fraction of Indian paramilitary forces present.

Amanullah Khan, Chairman of the Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF), on January 10 offered to surrender if the International Court of Justice (ICJ) issued a verdict against him. Khan said that the Indian government had declared him a terrorist and persuaded the Interpol to issue a warrant of arrest against him. "It was not for the first time that India has done so against me… India has been calling me terrorist but its real purpose is to prevent me from advocating my ideology of an independent Kashmir." Amanullah told a news conference in Islamabad following reports that his name was on the list of 20 men India wanted extradited from Pakistan. He called on India to approach the ICJ where he indicated he would challenge the allegations of terrorism and the Indian stand on Kashmir. He observed, "If the world court gave the verdict that I am a terrorist or my demand for a independent Kashmir is not justified, I would hand myself over to Indians." Separately, he said, on January 11, that he would launch a fresh-armed struggle if necessary. He added that his outfit had a right to fight for independence for Kashmir. "Now, since it will be an open official decision of the government of Pakistan to clamp down on militants, we may face Pakistan's wrath," he said.

President Pervez Musharraf, in an address to the nation on electronic media, on January 12, announced the proscription of five terrorist outfits, taking the number of banned groups to seven. President Musharraf banned two outfits active in Jammu and Kashmir, the Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT). Sectarian outfits Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistan (SSP), Tehreek-e-Jaferia Pakistan (TJP) and Tehreek-e-Nifaz-e-Shariat-e-Mohammadi (TNSM) were also proscribed. He also announced that the Sunni Tehrik has been placed under observation. As reported earlier, two sectarian outfits, Lashkar-e-Jhangvi (LeJ) and Sipah-e-Mohammed Pakistan (SMP), had been proscribed on August 14, 2001. Besides the proscription, he also banned any organisation in Pakistan if it calls itself as Lashkar, Sipah or Jaish. Those to be found involved in inciting people to commit violence, either in the external or internal context, would face punitive action, he added. He also stated that, in the year 2001, 400 persons had been killed in violent activities. He also announced future rules of behaviour for madrassas (seminaries) and mosques. He indicated that any mosque and new religious schools could be established only with the permission of the government. He also restricted the use of loudspeakers and all parties were disallowed the use of mosques or madrassas for political purpose, fanning sectarian hatred or anything that challenged the writ of the government. The President also said Pakistani religious leaders should not involve themselves in conflicts outside Pakistan. The President said Pakistan would not hand over any Pakistani national to India, though India has sent a list of 20 people it wants for terrorist and criminal activities committed in India. While condemning the terrorist attacks of September 11, October I and December 13 of year 2001, he added, if evidence was produced to Pakistan against these people, they would be proceeded against under Pakistani laws.

President Pervez Musharraf said in Islamabad on January 18 that Osama bin Laden is most likely dead since he was unable to get treatment for his kidney ailment. "I think now, frankly, he is dead for the reason he is a patient, he is a kidney patient," Musharraf said in an interview with CNN. "I don't know if he has been getting all that treatment in Afghanistan now. And the photographs that have been shown of him on television show him extremely weak. ... I would give the first priority that he is dead and the second priority that he is alive somewhere in Afghanistan," he added.

Pakistani Foreign Minister Abdul Sattar said in Islamabad on January 19 that the government would hand over to India a list of persons involved in terrorist activities in Pakistan for their extradition. Speaking at a joint press conference along with Canadian Deputy Prime Minister John Manley at the Foreign Office, he said, "We have names on our list and we will forward the list to the Indian government in due course of time so that the exchange of criminals is done on reciprocal basis." However, Sattar did not disclose the names or the number of terrorists who had reportedly fled to India after committing acts of terrorism in Pakistan. Commenting on the Indian demand of extraditing 20 Pakistan-based terrorists, Sattar said among those wanted by New Delhi included six Pakistanis and there was no question of handing them over to India. According to him, "As far as extradition of non-Pakistanis is concerned, it involves a complex legal and political procedure." He said the government was tracing these criminals as it had not yet ascertained as to how many of them were in official custody. The Foreign Minister said the Indian list contained names of some criminals who had been involved in cases as old as the hijacking case of 1981.

The Foreign Office spokesperson said in Islamabad on January 30 that the government is studying the context of a news item published in The News on the same day that Indian Home Minister LK Advani was involved in a conspiracy to assassinate the country’s first Governor General Muhammad Ali Jinnah in 1947. According to the news item, the Jamshed Quarters Police Station in Karachi had registered a First Information Report (FIR) against L K Advani and 17 others on September 10, 1947 on charges of attempting to kill Muhammad Ali Jinnah, then Prime Minister Liaqat Ali Khan, Khawaja Nazimuddin and other frontline leaders of Pakistan Movement. However, police could arrest only six persons while the remaining 12 persons, including L K Advani, escaped. They were declared proclaimed offenders by the Government of Pakistan while those arrested were tried in the court and were served with various punishments. The spokesman said, "the veracity of the report is being ascertained… The Foreign Office would not be in a position to make any comments on this subject before the facts of the news story have been fully looked into."
