Sameer Patil, a security analyst at Mumbai-based think-tank Gateway House, said international pressure was mounting on Pakistan to act sternly against terror.

“India has conveyed to the international community that it has provided Pakistan with credible leads in the Pathankot attack incident,” he told BenarNews, adding, “But I am pessimistic that Pakistan will take any serious action against the real conspirators.”

Following the 2008 Mumbai attack, which was claimed by LeT, Pakistan made a few arrests, but it was later found that those arrested were “not even remotely connected to the conspiracy,” Patil said.

“It is possible the latest arrests have only been made to placate the pressure mounting on the Pakistani government,” he said.
