Interpol, the international police agency, says Pakistan has provided DNA profiles of suspected "terrorists" to assist with the investigation into last year's attacks in the Indian city of Mumbai.The France-based agency said on Sunday that the information, which was received the previous day, would allow it to gauge "the full international dimension" of the November attacks which killed more than 170 people. India has blamed Lashkar-e-Taiba, a Pakistan-based group, for the co-ordinated series of attacks by 10 armed men at a number of locations across the city. The only suspected attacker captured alive, Mohammed Ajmal Kasab, has told investigators that the assault was planned in neighbouring Pakistan and carried out by Pakistanis, Indian officials say. He is due to appear in court on Monday for the opening of his trial. Police in Pakistan have detained a number of people in connection with the attacks and banned a group suspected of having links to Lashkar-e-Taiba.
