NEW DELHI: Indian Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar reiterated on Monday that the mysterious boat that blew itself off Porbander coast on New Year night had terror link and it was in constant touch with Pakistan.
Mr Parrikar was quoted as saying that the intercepts from the boat were investigated and the truth would come out in a few days. According to the Indian Express, however, he categorically said that he was not aware of what was inside the boat.
“Govt will release all analysis on the suspected Pakistani boat in 3-4 days,” he said.
The minister said the actions of the men on the boat backed what he had said.
“(I am) not speculating that it had explosives but it had some activity in mind that does not fit the description of a smuggling boat. Which smuggler would commit suicide? That much I can say,” Mr Parrikar said adding that their intentions were not right.
