New Delhi - The chief of global police organization Interpol Saturday met India's security officials and offered all possible international help into last month's Mumbai attacks which India believes were carried out by Pakistani militants.

Ronald Noble met India's Home Minister P Chidambaram and said Interpol would help secure details of the 10 militants who attacked multiple sites in India's financial hub between November 26 and 29.

"India has long been a strong partner of Interpol; it is only appropriate that Interpol stand shoulder to shoulder with India as it investigates the Mumbai terrorist attacks which will be remembered for how long they lasted," Noble said in a statement.

During the meeting, Noble said Interpol was comparing DNA profiles, fingerprints and other details of the militants with its global database, officials said.

Noble also said Interpol had offered to issue notices allowing Indian authorities to seek formal and structured assistance from its 187 member countries.

Noble, who met India's Central Bureau of Investigation chief Ashwani Kumar on Friday, said: "India and its CBI have much experience in using Interpol tools and services to track down the terrorist fugitives.

"India understands that it cannot be expected to find the answers to this incident without the support of the global law enforcement and Interpol will ensure this happens."

The attacks in two luxury hotels, a railway station and Jewish centre left 173 dead including nine militants.

One of the militants was captured by the Indian forces and was said to have admitted during questioning that the group was trained by Pakistan-based militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba.

India Friday pressed Pakistan to act against anti-India militants operating from its soil.

Indian Foreign Minister Pranab Mukherjee said India was obliged to consider "the entire range of options that exist" if Pakistan did not deliver on its assurances of dismantling terrorist infrastructure.

"Terrorism remains a scourge for our region. If a country cannot keep the assurances that it has given, then it obliges us to consider the entire range of options that exist to protect our interests and people from this menace," Mukherjee said.

The comments come shortly after Indian Defence Minister AK Antony ruled out military action against Pakistan. News reports had earlier said that Delhi had planned "surgical airstrikes" against militant camps in Pakistan in the wake of the Mumbai attacks.

"It is true that the issue of terrorism within Pakistan is deeply embroiled in the internal politics of that country. The infrastructure of terror remains unchallenged in Pakistan as does logistical support to anti-Indian terrorists," Mukherjee added. (dpa)
